It helps that the main woman is hot! - I think she'd probably puke in her mouth if she read this comment.

Haha, turns out she is Michelle Nunes, Miss Hooters International 2006 Winner (updated the post). So yeah she probably would.

You're kidding right. You are based in the USA? "Hello, Kettle? Yes, this is the pot, I think you're black". Ahem.

actually I am a Canadian who was born in England. The last time I checked in both the US and Canada you didn't need to show a passport or any kind of identification when buying a pay as you go phone.

Fred - I'm not sure I agree with you. A marginalised cause hasn't been put on the map, unfortunately it seems as though the mechanisms used to promote the campaign have been put on the map and punted across the board by bloggers and geeks alike. Not the cause. And I think it's a crying shame that this is what has happened.

Nic, I understand your point and I fully understand the point of this rant - BUT, still, you cannot deny that people are talking about the project. Lately I've heard people mention it at braai's, in meetings, and at work. People are asking 'what is autism?'
To be frank, I think a only handful of bloggers are now talking about the 'mechanisms used to promote the campaign'. I think Gerhard can live with that, because far more people are talking about autism.
That's a good thing.

But Nev - Do you think that forcing it upon people will help to educate them or help to create a "billboard" sort of ignoring about the topic? Surely forcibly pushing the topic at people insufferably is not the right way to do it? It's overkill and all it ends up doing is desensitising people to the real issue at hand. This is NOT criticism of the cause in any way, shape or form, it is a comment on the mechanisms being used to promote it.

No I don't think so, I think you guys are probably right. I think perhaps it needs a good blogger to blog real life issues autistics face, perhaps like a Tertia.

Top Class. This IS RHODES through and through and through. I haven't seen a more accurate depiction of "The walk of shame"!!

Ah Nic you and your Rhodes affiliation.... this Walk of Shame phenomenon will happen at any fine establishment where you'll find a combination of booze, 19-22 yr olds, beer pong a quad full of hungover degenerates. Man I miss it :'(
