I started Wrong Planet in 2004 with my friend Dan Grover because I wanted to find other people like me who were on the autism spectrum. I didn't know anyone else with autism until I went on the Internet, but it was hard to find anyone with the same interests.

My first computer was a Mac Plus that the school just gave to me for free because they thought it didn't work. But I figured out how to turn it on reliably--you just had to kick it.

I had a Mac Plus as my first computer, too; it's still sitting somewhere in my closet--

Yeah, I took it apart when we got a newer computer.

Did you make an aquarium out of it?
