Being a techie, I've been following the Hans Reiser trial a bit...

Regardless of guilt, it seems like he's getting a lot of judgement for the
NT interpretation of aspie characteristics. It seems like he'd get more fair
treatment if there were one or more aspies on the jury.

will judge and castigate based on flawed interpretation of vocal and nonvocal
communication.

What may appear to be a towering ego is often someone who has no choice but
to tell the truth as they see it. There's a big difference.

Doesn't it make sense that if you're going to try an AS person there
should be some on the jury to make sure it's fair?
