I had originally assumed that my post went unposted due to a technical issue (on Firefox, the page refreshed about every 10 seconds). And in common aspie form, I have saved my post (actually, I reposted it on my own forum): [post blocked by NYU/CSC has been added to list] Yes, I TRIED to participate in the forum.

At first, I wasn't upset that my comment didn't show up. I figured they had a lot of questions to go through. But I am upset that they never really addressed why they wouldn't think that having adults on the spectrum as part of the campaign review could be helpful. The other thing I am truly upset by is the fact that we are reduced to documenting our comments. I didn't do that. I really thought that the "town hall" was going to be an open discourse. This whole experience has left a "low moral tone" feeling for me, and of course, looking back at the original campaign, I don't know why I am surprised.
