I have also a son with asperger , and he's also a computer expert, and musician. It would be a crime against humanity if he would be transfered !!! The only" problem " with sutch people is that they can't lie!!

I'm almost shure if he would be transfered , they would use him for theyr own military purposes. I can't think of an other reason.

Asperger's syndrome in itself is associated with heightened anxiety. The stress Gary must be experiencing in association with this long, drawn-out case, and not knowing what will happen to him will surely be intolerable.

Even before being diagnosed with AS it was so obvious that Gary wasn't/isn't a terrorist. This is evident from his interviews with R&J and the BBC.

I do hope this turns out in the way it should do Janis.

That 'JK' seems like a bit of a twit. It's never been said that Gary should not be held accountable. Correct me if I'm wrong but people just don't seem to understand the issue here yet feel they have the right to give their opinion. Free Gary!
