One of the regulars in alt.sysadmin.recovery and bofh.* has a variant
of it (Auspergers or something like) and finds geek work really
satisfying.

I understand that a couple of autistics have written books which might
be worth reading but a bit scarey in one case.  One autistic woman is
a Ph.D in anthropology or ethology, I believe.

(I'd take this to geeks but I'm not subscribed and another mailing
