the name


even though it is in some ways useful to have a pedigreed scientific designation like "Asperger's Syndrome"--i just don't like the sound of it.

the sounds of words are important to me. i would prefer to substitute the words opsablepsia & opsablepsian (or opsablepsiast). (By synecdoche.)

it's a lot of syllables, i know, but they are beautiful syllables.
