The second video is of the creator of the hand-held game Pokemon. His name is Satoshi Tajiri. I used to play pokemon when I was around primary 3 on my gameboy. It is interesting to learn that he has Aspergers too. Other purported famous people with Aspergers includes Bill Gates and Albert Einstein. I suppose there might be a case to make for neuro-diversity, and Asperger's Syndrome should be viewed not as a disability, but a human condition that is produced by nature, or by God, because there is a valuable function to which this condition contributes to humanity. It is inspirational to me that a person with Asperger's Syndrome, Vernon L Smith, had achieved a nobel prize in economics. In the youtube video of Satoshi Tajiri above, there is this comment by a youtube user who says that he heard that people with Asperger's Syndrome is associated with an individual's creative abilities, and Satoshi Tajiri's creative capabilities is due to him having this condition. I don't think that this is true for all individuals with Asperger's Syndrome, but it is true that there are human beings with quite immense creative potentials and intellect who have this condition, and it is said that their capabilities is due to them having this condition which gives them a certain mind that is suited for the conception of such intellectual products.
Welcome to my humble abode. Make yourself at home, while I go get some coffee or tea, for you and for me!
