How does autism motivate the choice of yew vs. you? Is it avoidance of interaction that autistic people have, extended to typed interactions?

I hadn't noticed before -- well, this is only my first week on the board -- the books you've written. They sound fascinating.

Autism effects everything. It is a neuro-sensory disorder so that what is perceived through the five senses is disorted either in the brain or on the way to the brain itself. The world does not make sense. Some of us can compensate. Some of us can't. Most of us fall somewhere inbetween.

By the way, for those wondering about my signature, yes I really do carry a Title of Honor. It was given to me as an award for outstanding international disability advocacy.
