>Where are the black people with Asperger's? When I began learning about Asperger's and autism, one of the first things I read was that its incidence was virtually the same across all races. It was more common in males, but was otherwise evenly distributed throughout the world.

>I have met many Asian Aspergians. When I went West, I met Mexican Aspergians. In some communities in the East, I meet Aspergians from Puerto Rico. In many cities I see Russian Aspergians, and indeed I see Aspergians from all the European countries. The fact that I have met so many Aspergians from America's other "minority populations" suggests something is up.

>If black and Hispanic people are the largest minority populations in America, why don't I meet them in similar numbers? Hispanic Aspergians are common at my city events. Black Aspergians are nowhere to be seen

Not for the money, just for the quick job prospects. Like my father before me I don't do social connections very well, and I have do not have the gift of diplomacy.

He got around it by getting a Master's in physics, which got him a job the day after graduation.
I don't have the same level of dedication (different childhoods and all that), so I'm hoping to find a similar result, but with a Bachelor's degree.
