THE VIEW , In Pictures!
I never seen the Monday Jan. 29 presentation of The View on ABC television but I'm told Dr. Temple Grandin was on the show and the words "THINKING IN PICTURES" were mentioned. Thinking in Pictures is an invisible to you autism thought process known as the lack of eye contact in autism circles that connects our invisible to you picture thoughts to real life. There is an entire autism anthropology (group) of people from all over the world that have taken Temple Grandin's picture thought all the way to the bank, we can mimic traditional thoughts now.
We have been privileged to figure out all of our autism thoughts via double -blind lifetimes experience and we have discovered Autism is indeed the building blocks of the human mind all figured out . The splinter skills, the obsession, our keen senses, our odd speech (at least we talked) and manors are all just the slow motion step by step elements of the human mind has to go threw to think. You do them all the time but never know it as you might be considered normal. When we finally learned to Think in all of our Pictures our honed proficient picture thought (invisible to you) shines and indeed 98% of the time mimics traditional thought. We all do some acceptable form of real life most of us drive and hold traditional jobs and have families. The Autism Society of America and even the late Dr Rimland (Rain Man) have known of us for years. Perhaps they are scared of honest knowledge?
For sure our timing was all wrong, on average it takes someone in our anthropology at least 20 years and it took many of us 40 and 50 years to absently overcome autism on our own and we had the advantage not being crippled with the label of "Autism" most of us even the teens in our current anthropology were never diagnosed (thankfully). Along came Rain Man the Movie and Autism soon became a buzzword and a movement and an epidemic and Autism Progress was stood on its nose. Unknowingly Autism was now diagnosable and the experts flocked in and made autistic group home zombies, behavior troubles and diet drones , SHOCKINGLY if the curse of Rain Man is ever broken and enough people in Auti$m rea$earch realize what we have done, they will see they made a mountain out of a molehill and cheated mankind out of his very core knowledge. They will discover Autism is EINSTEIN working its way down to normal and NOT retard working our way up to normal. I know we present like retarded people at times but think of Rain Man, his numbers and memory ability were simply picture thoughts (invisible to you) the experts have never known shining threw.
In fact, Autism could be taught by 6th grade! If Autism were to be brave and admit to us and set us all down compile our experiences we could identify all of the autism thoughts, from the Still and Motion Picture thoughts that Temple Grandin mentioned in Thinking in Pictures and add to them the projection thoughts the 3 and 4 dimension thoughts the picture in picture thoughts and the many others we have honed over time in to proficient picture thought and all of autism could do what we do. Even the group home people of today. If we could have learned or even been presented with our basic thoughts we all could have been doing normal life by 6th grade, Yes even socially we could be on par with our peers. There is an entire segment of autism thought called Picture in Picture thoughts that really allows us to become social. Autism's Curse is underway and the "Experts" have spoken so we might not be able to ever figure out autism now. All of the best Autism Research in the world will never yield what we have figured out unless of course they admit to us. Honestly our Autism has never been in a text book before and once it is (IF) it is it will be 1000s of pages long.
Dr Rimland is dead now, I urge Dr. Cathy Pratt of the Autism Society and Mr. Sell (on The View) as well on the board of the ASA to move progress backwards if you will, and discover the foundation to autism.
