"...people who do all of their communicating online wind up mimicking
Asperger's behaviors because they are imposing the same disadvantages on
themselves. In both cases, when the ability to see nonverbal responses and
facial expressions goes away, so does empathy. Soon the thing you're
communicating with isn't a person, they're just a bunch of words on a
screen. A bunch of words that *the little bastard didn't even bother to
spellcheck.*"
