What I've heard is that there is an abnormally high incidence of
Aspergers in silicon valley.  The source is supposedly the high number
of geek parents.

Not that much radiation from computers these days, maybe we can blame

Note I'm not using geek as a disparaging term, I include myself in
that category...
