Been getting involved with some folks who have Asperger's and don't know if anyone here has it or knows someone who does, but thought I'd post a link to a story about a guy named Delmar who always wondered why he is the way he is and was determined to find out so he went to a University's Behavioral Science Dept. to see if they could give him some answers.
Even if you know nothing about Asperger's and don't really care, it's a good read. It's also pretty funny.
The Star reprinted this article about 6 months after it was published in the Charlotte Observer and this is the original story from the Observer's site.
