Wow! This is great news... John Elder Robison, author of Look Me In The Eye and proud Aspergian had been appointed as one of 37 members of a minor, non-decision making, advisory board of Autism Speaks. He was the ONLY openly spectrum-identified person on anything close to The Board of Autism Speaks. And now he is resigning because of the unacceptable portrait painted of Autism and Autism families by the founder of Autism Speaks.
