I saw the recent posts about Asberger's Syndrome, but I did not reply.
I am the old guy with bad legs and a cane.
I don't talk much. You probably noticed that. I spoke maybe 4
sentences during the social hour.
This goes back to my early childhood. I was born in New Orleans, and
spent my early years in a place called Houma, LA. Houma is about 3 feet
above MSL. Crawdads are everywhere. I have spent most of my life in
California and Arizona.
I did not learn to talk until I was 4 years old. And even that was an
accident.
When I was 4, we went over to my grandmother's house for dinner.
My dad went to the bathroom, and locked the door.
Suddenly, I developed an acute bladder pain. I kicked the door. Let me
in. I gotta pee.
My dad comes out, and says why didn't you talk before?
I said up till now, things have been pretty damned good.
That is how I learned to talk.
