Baron-Cohen is such a superficial thinker, as far as thinking about the mind goes...can't stand it. Why is he so well respected? Can't believe psychologists think Theory of Mind is an illuminating paradigm for studying mind. The whole topic is something merely....sublimated....as Wittgenstein/Cassirer/Merleau- Ponty would have said.

If any person's brain could function at this high level in math, science, language, and social skills, they would rule the planet, and we would all be dead.......................... or their slaves !

Not necessarily. Normally people use only a percentage of their brains...so I would imagine (without STRONG evidence or specific research to support this right now) that people who do have gifts to memorize or calculate rapidly mentally would lack the know how to manage or communication skills to do something like take over the world in a malicious way.

You can't have ur cake and eat it too.

It would've been nice to know what location the "Weather Guy" knew the weather in. Is it just for where he grew up? Where he currently is, etc...?

You are woefully misinformed. In fact, Thimerosal is a mercurial compound. Many compounds contain elements that by themselves are extremely toxic to life (i.e. chlorine gas in salt); however in compound they are harmless, or even necessary for life. That said, any elemental mercury present in a vaccination is less than what you would get from eating a can of tuna...and there has been no causal relationship established between levels of ingested mercury and autism.
