Well let's see...about 1-in-110 people have an Autism Spectrum Disorder and about one third of these (e.g 1-in-250 to 300ish) have Asperger's. That would put the US Aspie population in the 1 to 1.2 Million range.

Hans Asperger first wrote a paper about some characteristics of aspergers in 1943 (he did some research on a group of boys in the 1930's). Back then and up to the 1960s Asperger's was known as autisic psychopathy. A woman curious aobut the studies of Han's Asperger encouraged the name to be after the founder. Hans Asperger's information or rather data on Aspergers was not translated into English and brought to US till around 1994 or so.

What do people think about aspergers syndrome?

It always depends on the people. I have Asperger's and been called sweet, kind and gentle from one person and sadistic, cruel, and creepy by another. Most people view Asperger's with a question mark as it is not well known (Asperger work from Germany translated in English and brought to US in 1994). There are many views for Asperger's and some of them are common and some are strange (to me) .Their funny .Their genius (not true though many Aspies tend to have normal to above normal intelligence) .Their helpful .Their responsible Their neat/clean/organized (Aspie's noramlly do not like change) .A study I read noted that people with Aspergers tend to prefer a goth/emo style of clothing .Not very talkative or extremly talkative (This can be selective mutism)
