Interesting and informative, thank you. I didn't know that history about saving Aspies but not other autistic people.

In my About Me article, I mention that I was diagosed with Asperger's syndrome in 2012, because that is the diagnosis I got at the time. But in my little bio text at the side, I describe myself as "mildly autistic". I think it's better to get rid of the name Asperger's because it refers to a particular person. It's better to regard it as part of Autistic Spectrum Disorder. Then people can understand that autism is a spectrum containing multiple variations.
