Thanks for making that comment Flugel. I was trying to decide if I should say something more along the lines of what you said, but figured the implied sarcasm of my "nice" would have to suffice. I would point out though that the negative signs of a mild Asberger's case are unfortunately often overlooked as social ineptness. This is why many researchers believe the occurrence of Asberger's might be much higher than statistics presently indicate, especially in the highly driven, single discipline people of technology industries. Men also suffer from the syndrome at a ratio of 4 to 1 compared to women. People with Asberger's do tend to be highly intelligent, articulate, and technically precise; where they run into difficulties is with personal interactions because they have difficulties interpreting the body language and implied comments of others. But many "normal" people make the same types of social mistakes in everyday interactions thus complicating the diagnosis. More often, people with Asberger's are treated for depression than the root condition, as they feel like social outcasts due to their inability to fit into "normal" society. Their repertoire of "useless" information also tends to be narrow and complete, often centering on a single focus instead of being a general know-it-all .

My apologies, too. Now, let's get back to panning Hollywood and Grey's Anatomy. ;D It's okay, we just, er wandered a bit. I noticed watching the episode from Thursday in addition to the problems with the ferry, the rail around the parking lot appeared and disappeared as they needed it to.

Hmmm... that "fog" seems to have disappeared. Two other things I noticed in that pic: The walkway over the dock end of the #3 slip isn't there. Those 2 streetlights in the background are added in.

Isn't that the walkway partially blocking the view of the passenger loading ramp?
[edit] Oh, I see... the stairs disappear into thin air halfway down.

So...I totally know that I got the aspergers...Ive had it for several years. I did not see the 1st episode, but I caught the second one...Dont ya just love those little blinking lights between the CD windows Since when does P52 NOT have any railings? It also seems that the dock shrunk considerably-the fire truck is massive in porportion to the terminal Last time that I checked, there were a bunch of lines painted on the dock so that cars would know where to stop. All things considered, they did pretty good. I think that people who are not familiar with the dock and boats would think nothing of it.

Now, as long as we don't get a bunch of armchair admirals wanting to know why WSF doesn't have railings around the docks, blah blah blah... just like everyone was an expert on vessel sinkings after the movie Titanic came out.

Interesting photos! So what was the purpose in the show for the ferry scene?? To crash into the dock or what???
