That said, and fair warning… scientific CT thought to follow… the incidence of Autism is climbing at a frightening rate even by the old standards. Something is driving that increase, and that something very much needs to be identified and addressed. But to try and blame it on acetaminophen is about as valid as blaming it on maternal di-hydro monoxide addiction. Speaking as a working conspiracy theorist Donald is a total embarrassment to the calling.
The best theory I’ve heard was put forward was by the mother of a boy diagnosed (likely in error) as level 3 autistic. It involves the same mechanisms of brain development that are in play in what the research psychologists call DTD… DEVELOPMENTAL TRAUMA DISORDER… being severely over driven by any of several potential chemical contaminants now all but ubiquitous in the water supply. But, even if Mr. Kennedy goes all out it would still be ten years and a couple of major paradgyme shifts in both the AMA and the APA to make anything resembling a definitive call.

Solid reasoning, no argument here.

As a conspiracy Autism is a tough nut to crack.
