Default That autism awareness comercial.. seat belt
You know I am somewhat opposed to autism awareness, but I finnally saw a commercial I like. It has a mom buckling her child into a car seat and they say something like your child has a 1/18000 chance of being in a car accident (just a guess, I don't recall the exact number... then it says.. your child has a 1/166 chance of being dx with autism. plus it was on cnn instead of network channels... much better for me.

Hey, Keg.

Was it an AutismSpeaks PSA? I have seen one or two others. They're great.

Good! Somebody, somewhere has the answer for this disorder, it's time someone gets interested on finding its cause. Some one or several ones have their head buried in sand denying and denying...
