The ''Savage'' Affair

Michael Alan Weiner, PhD, was born in 1942 in The Bronx and raised in Queens(I Think Hollis Hills). He is into Alternative Medicine(Homeopathy). He is also known as Michael Savage, Radio Commentator:

I listened to his thing about Autism, which he knows is a terrible tragedy, but what he actually said was that this condition is often over-diagnosed by Physicians, and that Modern Medical Science knows next to nothing about it;

Which to me, means that "Big Pharma" hasn't come up with a cure for it, or a way to make money off it-yet;

What angers Savage is that Doctors will label a Child Autistic, rather rapidly;

Savage states that some children begin speaking later than a year or 2 years old. I began speaking around age 4. I was found to have a hearing loss of 25% in each ear, in 1957 at the NY Eye And Ear Infirmary on 2nd Avenue, across the Street from The Current "Professor Thom's" and "Finnerty's", the 1st Place, a Red Sox Themed Pub, and the 2nd, a Yankees-Themed Pub, in the East Village In Manhattan;

I was NOT Autistic, at least by the 1957 Definition, whereas currently, the Autism Tag is and may be thrown around too much, in the current landscape;

Hence, my Commentary on the whole thing, is that Mike Savage may just be a little too-brusque, but he does realize that Medical And Educational-Types, are noted for throwing around labels, without knowing what the hell they're talking about, and sometimes for profit;
