[@BobbiElmanND]

Just popped up as suggestion and a joy to revisit. Phoebe is even more amazing in person

Really inspirational, one of my heros too

I liked this talk, because it has a problem solving appeoach. As soon as the speaker talked about the behaviour at the door, I thought about the abandonment, this person had experienced. I liked the communication methods as well. I am glad that the strong stroking worked, but some people might have reacted badly to touch, when distressed. I think it is a mistake to cause the problem visual distortion, because it suggests that these people don't see accurately and that the neurotypical majority see properly. It is visual difference. In truth, I do not know if the colour, which I identify as red is the same colour, which you identify as red. I am wondering if the blue filtering is useful to people, who are more sensitive to the ultraviolet spectrum. There may be equivalent difficulties for those more sensitive to nuances of the infrared spectrum.
