Telling quote:
''There are plenty of folks with AS [Asperger syndrome] who are
hard-working and productive. But they are drawn to computers and, if not
properly mentored, I suppose that's where hacking could get started.''

sufficient evidence to ask: Could AS be an indicator of children at risk
of drifting into computer hacking?"
