What do we Really Know?

My Quote

 The above quote is part of an entry in the Dover Beach blog.
  Cosmas was discussing rich and poor, a valid discussion today.  The complete quote is even in words that echo Boom's framing of the subject.

Sensory Overload & Autism

  But we know so little of each other.  When i've visited the Apple store with my mother in law, i've felt overwhelmed with the sensory input.  Especially the last time, the Saturday after Thanksgiving.  Fortunately my sister in law was there too so i could escape.
  This is a world many with autism live in daily.  We can't enter there.
  Despite the author's disclaimers, The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Nighttime describes behaviors that look, to those of us familiar with autism, like those in our loved ones.

My Point

  Earlier this week, i received this link to a video preview clip about autistic sensory overload.  It lasts about two minutes.  Be sure to give it a look.
