Diamonds in the Sewer. Monday, December 11, 2006. The Autistic Explosion: What it is like from the inside. Guest Post by Robert Biales. I have been asked that I, as an adult Autistic, give an explanationof my motivation when I explode. I feel it might help others who endup on the receiving end of an explosion. When the time came to do the deposit I noticed that someone else was already doing it. OK! I was scheduled to do the cash check. Everything was set and in place. We are hyper-focused on our plan, t...

Diamonds in the Sewer: August 2006
http://diamonds-sewer.blogspot.com/2006_08_01_archive.html
Diamonds in the Sewer. Wednesday, August 23, 2006. Everything I needed to know about autism began with chocolate. Differences in perception are important. When my younger brother was little he was upset by the color brown - milk chocolate brown, and shades that were close to milk chocolate brown. In most of my vision I can see a bright red truck in the site below. But if I close one eye and look off to one side, I see what my brother sees, and if you push the "protan" button you can see his way, too.

Diamonds in the Sewer. Monday, March 05, 2007. If Gore is Wrong and Bush is wrong, who is right? 1 I was really worried ten-fifteen years ago but in retrospect we as the human race have made it out of the post-WW2 way of thinking and into a new world. I'm really excited and eager to see what's coming. I think Stewart Brand http:/ sb.longnow.org/Home.html. Has a bead on the world our children will make for us. http:/ www.longnow.org/.

Diamonds in the Sewer. Monday, November 28, 2005. I can explain it for you, but I can't understand it for you." Loesje. If parents have nothing to do when their children leave, what were they doing while the children were there? On that note,. Looking around myself and seeing an "empty nest" is as hard to imagine as looking in a mirror and seeing nobody's reflection." JulieB. Posted by JulieB at 2:46 PM.

Diamonds in the Sewer. Saturday, January 13, 2007. Imagine there's no Asphalt. The first act I'd like anyone who is interested to do is to go to Google Earth, or many other good photo atlasses. If you have been up in a plane, remember looking down. What do you see? Or Girl Genius: http:/ www.girlgeniusonline.com/. Take the bird's eye view and see what there is to be seen. It's true that America has an oil addiction - but you're all looking at the wrong one. It's not the oil that goes into your cars t...

Diamonds in the Sewer. Saturday, May 06, 2006. Homeschool High School - Hormones! We're talking about old-fashioned, traditional male female relationships a lot this month. Many different kinds of old-fashioned out there. Right now the three thousand year old love stories and Nicholas' female friends' experiences as of this moment have a lot in common. Nina Paley's work on the Ramayana - talk about a rich lode of material for boys and girls on the edge of adulthood! Posted by JulieB at 10:50 AM. Peak Oil...

Diamonds in the Sewer: April 2006
http://diamonds-sewer.blogspot.com/2006_04_01_archive.html
Diamonds in the Sewer. Wednesday, April 19, 2006. The basic idea is that children are your allies, and are there to do what you do, not something else specifically called "childhood". The hitch is that many kids aren't aware of what is going on around them. Ask them to "clean up their room" and they will be puzzled; they had never made a note of what the room was like when it was clean and so have no motivation to make an attempt to clean it. You go; they follow. It's hard to push a rope. My parents were...

Diamonds in the Sewer. Monday, July 03, 2006. Robert's induction into the "Brotherhood of Venom". Today was one of those days that have me leaping out of bed so glad to be alive - and experiencing some other day than one like today. People who have autism like to line things up, and he stopped piling sections quickly and firmly to sliiiiiiiiiide them into proper order."No, no, no! I yelled (a lot of calls to stop and etc.) He said, "The books say to slide on the sections! Needless to say that pretty much...

Diamonds in the Sewer. Monday, November 20, 2006. Peak Oil, Communes, and finding Kindred Souls. When I think about places that have survived times of immense social change, I think of small groups of people who care for the weak, who are at play, living a life that they find interesting. The closest thing out there to an autobiography is Meanwhile, Next to the Good Life. Many good points made, many close to home. Same principle goes for your relationships with people, your housing, and just about everyt...
