About Autism Hangout FEATURE PROGRAMS:
FEATURE PROGRAMS are a series of ongoing, continually updated, autism topics (i.e. "Key Learnings," "Beyond the Headlines", "Moving Out" or Featured Guests).
They are prepared by Autism Hangout Staff Reporters. We’ll keep on top of trends in the news as well as Autism Hangout’s Discussion Forums so you can quickly find the latest, current thinking on the topics and challenges that we face daily.
All Feature Programs have links to threads in the Discussion Forum (if you'd care to share your experience or insights with others).

Dr. Tony Attwood returns to answer YOUR questions about Autism. In this Program, Dr. Attwood addresses facts about common sensory issues, more on the difference between "intimate" and "special" friends (and how to tell NT's about the differences) and what Dr. T calls the "intellectual orgasm"... I'll let him explain. :)
