Proposed Autism Diagnosis Changes angers "Aspies"

While I'm more on the Aspergers end of the spectrum myself the labels don't matter that much to me. Personally I prefer to say I have mild Autism then to have to explain what "Aspergers" is. I'm not a big fan of labels or group identities anyway but sometimes they're a necessary evil. http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,585505,00.html
