I was just thinking that Ludwig Beethoven might have had this "Aspergers" syndrome. He didn't get along with people very well, never married and was focused nearly entirely upon his music.
Imagine how differently things might have turned out if he was diagnosed as a "victim" in childhood and given medicine that inhibited his creativity. The world would have been denied some great music.
