[QUOTE="tammyjh, post: 140993, member: 3072"] So, I watched Pride and Prejudice for the 5th or 6th time...the Kierra Knightly version. Decided to read up a bit on Jane Austen and checked out a book about her from the library. I noticed that a lot of her letters to family were descriptions about people...one person she talked about talked of nothing but horses...obsessed with horses SO...me being who I am...I think Asperger's Syndrome. Go the computer and google "Jane Austen +Aspeger's Syndrome" and what do I find? Many many links and one that talked about a book that was recently written about how Jane Austen based her characters on family and friends and that her descriptions in Pride and Prejudice are a pretty good description of Asperger's Syndrome. As the forward was written by Tony Attwood, I had to order the book and its actually quite fascinating. So...my "fun" reading ended me back up where I frequently go...reading about Asperger's Syndrome:laughing2: [/QUOTE]
