Thanks for writing this, Russell. I was nervous as I heard "you might be on the show" and I was relieved to see your smile, hear your warm voice, and listen and interact with you "in real time." I never thought podcasting and online writing could lead to real friendships and personal growth, but it has, and you and Jesse are great proof! Thanks for writing this; I feel the same!

Thank you, Russell. At 70 I will remain undiagnosed, but at least I am finally self-diagnosed. It explains so much that had baffled me my whole life. I'm so glad you are connecting with others. A support network is crucial.

Thank you for the shout-out Russell! Oddly enough I have never been on github but I appreciate the sentiment; I was always involved in the political side of the open source world, mainly through OFTC and SPI. Years ago my .profile said something to the effect of "I live at the junction of politics and technology" though I can't remember how I phrased it.
