This is more than sickening. This is insane. She is actually insane. That a woman, claiming to be a neuroscientist, can make such ridiculous claims, and actually get them published. Is there nothing that she has to do to get her job? Did they not ask her to prove her claims that she was a neuroscientist? It just shows how the country really is going to shit. Computers, IMing, Video games etc. All these things, if anything, have improved my reactions, spelling and grammar. And the claim about autism actually makes me want to hit her in the face. Thanks, I'm done =] This is sickening. This is more than sickening. This is insane. She is actually insane.

Don't be so knee-jerk, because that misses the true issue at hand: the idiocy of a person in charge of one of the country's premier scientific institutions who is acting utterly unscientifically.
