[TD]In a recently published study in the journal Biological Trace Element Research, Arizona State University researchers report that children with autism had higher levels of several toxic metals in their blood and urine compared to typical children. The study involved 55 children with autism ages 5-16 years compared to 44 controls of similar age and gender.
The autism group had significantly higher levels of lead in their red blood cells (+41 percent) and significantly higher urinary levels of lead (+74 percent), thallium (+77 percent), tin (+115 percent), and tungsten (+44 percent). Lead, thallium, tin, and tungsten are toxic metals that can impair brain development and function, and also interfere with the normal functioning of other body organs and systems.
A statistical analysis was conducted to determine if the levels of toxic metals were associated with autism severity, using three different scales of autism severity. It was found that 38-47 percent of the variation of autism severity was associated with the level of several toxic metals, with cadmium and mercury being the most strongly associated.[/TD]

Excuse me for not being educated on the subject, but how the hell did they get in there?
Kids with autism are robots sent back in time to undermine the human race by Skynet.
I got autism (no not an aspy) but I don't shit razor blades or piss liquid metal. It's a fucker for socializing but I can remember long numbers just by looking at them. I can even remember my friends credit card number just from getting a 2 second glimpse at his card in a nightclub 3 years ago
I think we should extract those metals. Tungsten is pretty rare.

It's like the matrix, but robots farms us for metals instead of energy

Ha that's neat. My brain is a complete retard. Won't even want to remember things properly. Even If I were to do them every day.

nice, thanks for telling us
meanwhile, on-topic, i don't think this will really lead anywhere, you can't really take all of it out of said peoples' systems (?)
Mercury? Oh god, this is going to feed some anti-vaccinators.

I would totally trade my social skills for remembering long numbers in a glimpse.
Amalgam dental fillings.
Pregnant women transferring toxic metals to their kids.

Vaccines cause autism :downs:

I have shit social skills [I]and[/I] can't remember numbers worth a damn.
I got the short end of the stick :downs:
We could use autistic children to extract rare metals from environments. Send them into mines drinking the cave water then collect their urine.
Autistic children are prototype terminators. It all makes sense now.
as a diagnosed asp i can finally reveal that i'm actually a t-1000
WHERE IS SARAH CONNOR
So if I got lead poisoning when I was younger could I have gotten Autism? (semi-joke)

Ah man that's so cool... What was the number then?
[QUOTE=Ganerumo;39720678]I would totally trade my social skills for remembering long numbers in a glimpse.[/QUOTE]
It doesn't sound as though Chaoss86 would hold his numeral memory as more valuable than socializing.
By all means correct me if I'm wrong though. It'd just seem to me that "communicating is a bitch BUT I have an ability that's only useful in certain situations and useless in most."
If you do think your memory is super useful then god, I'm sorry. Not my intention to come across as an ass because I'd much rather easily socialize than potentially drain my friends funds.

Take it from a fellow autism fag, trading social skills for situational skills really isn't worth it.
[QUOTE=SuPeR_MaN;39720825]Ah man that's so cool... What was the number then?[/QUOTE]
Yeah! And while you're at it, the security number, the expiry date... etc.

That was the impression I was getting, but not exactly when you were a child but still in your mothers body being developed that maybe some of these toxic metals from her body went into you'rs thus leading to impaired brain development and autism.
just an idea.
Am I going to die?
[QUOTE=Jocke;39720951]Am I going to die?[/QUOTE]
most people do
Does that mean being autistic...

You get his PIN too?
That might be a good idea for a shitty movie actually, an autistic bank robber, he stammers and can't speak up when telling people to get on the fucking floor :v:

Wait, didn't we already figure out that putting toxic shit into your body while pregnant is a really bad idea? This guy I know has no legs, half an arm and lacks most of his fingers on the other hand. His mother was on some kinda hard medication while she was pregnant, iirc.
I heard about some kind of theory about this a while back but could only find it covered on sites about supplements and natural remedies so I ignored it. Good to see there is some proper research being done.
I apparently have aspergers according to a psychologist I was diagnosed by not so long ago but shit, maybe I'm just metal. My music taste is metal so it would fit :v:
we must mine their minerals

Believe me man, I was there too and it is not worth it, at all.
