Discovery channel on Sunday at 8 pm is showing the Real Rainman who had aspergers. I plan to watch it just to see where research is going now for those on the spectrum!

I will mark it on my calendar. I don't think the Dustin Hoffman portrayal (sp) of Rainman was Aspergers or was he? For some reason I'm thinking he would have been high functioning autism or PDD-NOS or maybe just true Kanners autism.

Thanks for the heads up!
