- -05-15-09 Adult Autism (Time.com)
"If recent estimates of prevalence by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention are accurate, then 1 in 150 of today's children is autistic. That means we are in for a vast number of adult autistics — most better adjusted than Noah, some as bad off — who will be a burden to parents, siblings and, eventually, society."
"We are largely unprepared to deal with this crisis. Autism funding and research, so far, have predominantly focused on children." 05-09
