That's pretty incredible. i've seen some of those folks who could look at a building or the like, and turn around and draw some pretty incredible accurate sketches of it. But a whole city like this ?? He seemed pretty functional as well.

I have three different Autistic young adults that live on my street and they are so kind and loving it seems they are blessed of God. They are not vain and materialistic as normal adults. They are happy with simple things for long periods of time. I notice too they do not miss a trick when you are talking to them.

Wow that guy was incredible!
The latest statistics are that 1 in 166 children are born with autism a year. Isn't that unbelievable? I work at a preschool and I do believe that would be an accurate statement. We see the kids at a very young age and sometimes the staff picks up on it before the parents do.The parents don't always realize they are autistic until they place them in a structured environment with alot of socialization and that's when it occurs to them that something isn't quite right. Alot of them end up being highly functional though in society.:)
