Time for another bump
"Once you accept that a child on the autistic spectrum experiences the world in
 a completely different way than you, you will be open to understand how that
 perspective
    is even more amazing than yours."
    To realize the value of nine  months:
    Ask a mother who gave birth to a stillborn.
"Don't piss off old people The older we get, the less 'Life in Prison' is a deterrent."

Thanks Nate!

Just about two weeks to go. I can't thank those who made a donation enough.....but next time I see you at DIMBY I will do my best.
I'm here for a good time, but not a long time.

what they should do is use positive pressure ventilation and humidifiers in the stairwell....my throat is still raw from the dry air.

I couldn't find you, or any of the members of your team, listed in the results.

What's up with that?
