18. It's interesting to note these results from Vox Day's blog. The atheism-inclined like Dr. Meyers scored much higher on average toward the AS range than the religiously-inclined.

14, so I guess I am an IT geek who can make good cocktail chatter when necessary...

Or there's a simpler explanation... Kevin Beck on Asperger's Syndrome: The most interesting thing about Asperger's syndrome is that its "discoverer" decided he had it and named it after himself, which he might have done even if not "suffering" from this "disorder." Maybe. Asperge...

32 for me, which is close to where I stood on the same test in the past. I may have been as low as 27 or 28 before. It's probably on one of the blogs somewhere, and was the same test, just less pretty. Not a surprise.

Uh-oh. My 38 score seems pretty far out there. Worse, if I had answered the questions honestly, my score would be nearer to 50. Fortunately, I am not a blogger but rather just a Joe Schmoe in search of information not tainted by the MSM.

Alex: At 13, I be cooler than thee!

I figure that means that I am sensitive to other people in the room, but not much more than that.

I scored a 14, which looked like it was below "average", whatever that means.

From this, I conclude that I am very cool. Heed all of my words carefully!

I scored a 26, but then I work in IT, in an area that involves people with a lot of engineering and math background. The score wasn't any surprise to me.

That test is kind of easy to tell what would or wouldn't be the Asperger's diagnosis.

My 9 year old is diagnosed though, so I am more familiar with the various symptoms and see them daily. Although some people have misconceptions about what autism is and people with autism act.

It is easy to see why a lot of Aspie's end up on the internet or in computer oriented fields.
