I promise I'm not stalking Robin (nor am I her PR person, though I'd bet it
would be a fun job), but after I sent my last post, I found Robin's
interview on the Today show.

Lots more quotable stuff there.

inexpensive ...) graduation present, too.

We actually feel we should question if Genie's disabilities should be
attributed to her extensive deprivation and abuse?! OK, you have totally
lost me here. Why have we abandoned common, every day logic? Here's a
little girl chained to a toilet for 12 years with no exposure to language,

I hope most of you have read the original study by Wakefield that
supported the notion that vaccines cause autism. It is very poorly
designed and based on a meager 12 subjects. And catch this, Wakefield
would have benefited tremendously financially if folks bought into this
as, surprise,
He's being accused of more than poor design.
Confidential medical documents and interviews with witnesses have
established that Andrew Wakefield manipulated patients’ data, which
triggered fears that the MMR triple vaccine to protect against measles,
mumps and rubella was linked to the condition.
Sometimes common, everyday logic does need to be abandoned, especially if a
strong confirmation bias means failing to consider possible, if less likely,
alternatives. I doubt that anyone was questioning the fact that the
treatment that Genie received would make any normal child abnormal.
However,
I hate that backgroup dramatization music also Beth. But relative to
the barking like a dog, I read a book about Mother Teresa and her care
of so-called trash-bin babies. These were children who were literally
abandoned in the trash bin and somehow made it by being adopted by packs
of dogs.
I will be there. Looking forward to seeing all of you.

Beth Benoit noted:
there's also a sort of cheesy video I have showing a Russian girl who
barks like a dog - a little suspicious - and some mentions (and photos) of
Indian children who were feral.
The most famous of the feral Indian children claims is the sorry tale of
