Jun 15 2012: The website you listed stated the findings are preliminary, so obviously more research is needed. I wonder, if this is the causative mechanism behind a portion of autism cases, why the increase in autism cases wasn't recognized sooner. Antibiotics have been around for decades and they've been used widely by kids for at least 30 years (probably much longer).
Mar 22 2012: I'm not sure I agree that "introverts are more successful than extroverts". It depends on your definition of success. An introverted public relations professional, for example, may not be terribly successful. Success, I think, depends on a huge number of factors and it begins with finding the occupation (meaning any activity that occupies your time) that right for you.
