People with autism tend to think in pictures.  I have noticed this with my son and it is FASCINATING.  He walks into a room and takes a snapshot and stores it in his mind.  He will walk into that same room a year later and will notice if one small piece of furniture or decor is moved.  And his pictures are so detailed!  He also loves a computer game called CRAZY MACHINES which allows him to create electrical and mechanical machinery on the computer.  So it is so wonderful to see what we’ll be able to do with the computer for people on the spectrum.
