My score was 32. But the problem with tests like those is that my answers are hardly confident at all (Q: I prefer to do things with others rather than on my own. A: Um, well, maybe, it depends, sometimes I like doing things by myself, but other times, eh, well, it depends on the activity, etc. etc. etc.; Q: I usually notice car number plates or similar strings of information. A: Um, sometimes, when I start just noticing random stuff on the street, sometimes my mind wanders and I pick up little things, but, well, usually, I don't pay attention at all, but, er, uh; Q: I usually concentrate more on the whole picture, rather than on the small details. A: Uh, well, yes, but I usually go by parts, I usually start with the overall picture, but then I notice the details, and then I, uh, I have no idea). It's too hard to generalise, so I think this is sort of pointless, really.
I have acquaintance when a kid who has Asperger's Syndrome, and he definitely stands out. It's neither a severe case of autism, but it's also not a very slight thing that is hard to pick up. It doesn't take much more than a person with HALF a brain to talk to him and realise that something is just not quite right. I think it's horrible that people have been going around tackling all sorts of "syndromes" and labels to kids, just because they aren't all the same. I blame, at least partly, the laziness of parents for that.

I know forums where my statement would have caused a flame war or two.
