It's hilarious that talking straight is a sign of a neurological issue.

I realize that there are some people that don't give emotions and other people's emotions the proper respect, in terms of tactfully telling them something (House comes to mind), but I haven't felt Steve doing that. I recall him apologizing in one of his early posts on spiritual issues, saying that he realizes it can strike a nerve with some people but its an important part of PD.

Another thing, are you a doctor, or someone familiar with people with Aspreger's? It's entirely possible that Steve falls within the normal range of human personalities but you might be misdiagnosing him based on your subjective evaluation of one symptom. BTW, Aspreger's is a lot more serious than just "talks straight".
