Comment Re:They just need to treat it like it's a privileg (Score 1) 312

You hit the nail on the head. For a while I would camp out at Taco Bell, as they had free wireless and nobody cared if someone sat there for hours with only a drink because they're all being paid shit. The problems you listed are exactly why I would only buy anything once.

It's only speculation, but I suspect that they got tired of me and just let the wireless router go into disrepair. Oh well.

Urine Test For Autism 228

An anonymous reader writes "Defining and diagnosing autism has been a controversial process — but may be a little less so now. Children with autism have a different chemical fingerprint in their urine than non-autistic children, according to new research. The difference stems from a previously documented difference in gut bacteria found in autistic individuals. The possibility of a simple pee test matters because currently, children are assessed for autism through a lengthy testing process that explores a child's social interaction, communication, and imaginative skills. Being able to identify the condition earlier and at a lower cost could leave more time and money for treatment."
