I came across what may be the best web tool to come out in a long time.
A handful of Internet saints invented StupidFilter, open-source filter software that you’ll be able to use in blogs, community sites, or wherever to filter out stupidity in things like comments. I’m serious.
So as a test, I went to their demo and plugged in Michael Savage’s profane statement, “It’s a brat who hasn’t been told to cut the act out. That’s what autism is.”
StupidFilter’s analysis?
“Text is likely to be stupid.”
Well, I think that settles it.
Now go read my other post and contact his sponsors. Thanks!

Tim and Mary,
I was at the Bellevue art fair this weekend and came across a booth that had a large sign outside, indicating that all the artwork in that booth was created by an autistic child. I took a picture of the booth intending to show it to you, but in looking at the picture saw that there was a website for him as well, which has just about everything I saw at the booth.

Forgive me if you’ve already heard of these things I send you – feel free to smack me if I’m pointing out obvious things. On the plus side, I’m never going to ask you if you’ve heard what Jenny McCarthy has to say.
Those are awesome. I really liked seeing the different perspective. Sometimes I would look at a picture and not really get it… but then look at it out of the corner of my eyes, and suddenly I understood. Thanks D’Julie!
