Comments In Line. Assuming the post is the same (or similar) from Guillaume's blog as it looks like it (I haven't read the full WMF blog version yet) I'm so excited we're giving it a wider viewing. Thanks for helping to get it up Joe (and I'm sure others :) ).
Guillaume: This is a an amazingly good look as what it's like and works well not just as a reflection on your experience but as a tool for others to understand both the Autism spectrum and Wikipedians as a whole. Well done :)

Hey all,

Many thanks to Guillaume for this post.
Below are some proposed social media messages. Please tweak as needed.
*Twitter (@wikipedia/@wikimedia):* • "As you can imagine, realizing at 31 that you are on the autism spectrum changes your perception dramatically." https://blog.wikimedia.org/2015/07/31/autistic-wikipedia-life/
LGTM like the quote, don't have a great alternative to sneak in Guillaume's twitter account as a mention
*Facebook/Google+:* • "When I first moved to the US, every time someone asked me “How are you?”, I would pause to consider the question. Now, I’ve learned that it’s a greeting, not an actual question." https://blog.wikimedia.org/2015/07/31/autistic-wikipedia-life/
Amazing quote. LGTM x2 (I'm going to post it myself too)
thanks, Joe
