Although not an expert by any means, and going solely on my experience as the mother of an Asperger's son, the moment I came across Steve's personality on television and the things I've read about him (I just bought his biography), I would definitely say that indeed he and the Facebook kid are both Asperger's. The fact that neither of them was/has been diagnosed officially doesn't' mean anything, since most Asperger's children unfortunately go undiagnosed for most of their life. Those of us that deal with Asperger's know that although we can't specifically describe how we recognize Asperger's, we DO KNOW when we see it. I believe my son is one of the lucky ones that was diagnosed early enough to begin social therapy, and he has improved tremendously for which I'm very grateful. However my heart goes out to the perhaps thousands of children that will go through life not knowing exactly what's wrong with them and why they can't keep friends. I hope our society creates more social environments (schools) where special kids like Asperger's can really develop and share with the rest of the world their genious. I know Steve and Mark didn't have that luxury, and look how far they've taken us. Imagine what it would be like if they had all the support mechanisms that their personalities need...
