Lurking,
Thanks for sharing this info...I'm a little on the fence with the idea of vaccines as the causal but use the info out there to make informed decisions for my young son (he's just shy of six months). Those stats do scare the heck out of me.
Interestingly, longitudinal studies from N. Europe show that despite the elimination of all mercury from vaccines there has been no significant decline in the diagnoses of autism. I wonder if a study focusing on both dietary changes and absence of mercury have been done?
John, I rarely say this, but I was LMAO at the description of your sister- what an image, and I hope you don't mind if I use that phrase?
