Bingo.  It was the Fluties and parents like them that saddled us the
past ten years with ABA and ABA's practitioners unholy war against FC.
It will be difficult if not impossible to convince these parents that
what they did and what they supported was the exact opposite of what
they should have done.

They thought they knew better when the fact is that anyone with basic
knowledge of IQ sees plenty of evidence in auties behavior of at least
the possibility of high IQ.  That of course makes FC more than a
disirable intervention, but a must.

Flutie was a huge disappointment not only in the autism community but
with my home team the Buffalo Bills.  He was all set up to be the
champion of the underdog.  What happenned?
