I teach and I usually have an Aspie student and we usually work well together. I do not try to change them and work toward their strengths and am often impressed by what they go on to do. Some of our other posters are Aspie also. When the normal posters know this, they seldom take offence. Glad you are posting with us.

People āon the spectrumā can sometimes be easier to converse with through a keyboard than in real life. There is only the text and nothing else, no body language, no gestures, no inflections of tone.
Just the text, nothing else.
Some āon the spectrumā are also direct (or blunt) and take it as perfectly natural if others write what they think, no careful circling of the sensitive subject, straight to the point and get it out.
Us ānormiesā often try to read between the lines to try and reconstruct the āmissingā information that should have been present in a face to face verbal communication.

My oldest son is a Aspie ,little bit different from the "standard " heās communicative and socialā¦on heās own terms 
that means be ready to be interested in my scientific monologue at least once a day,the problem starts when he canāt avoid to point out your stupidity like āi donāt want to offend you butā¦ā or ātechnicallyā¦ā at that point brace yourself 
because the 11 years old makes you feel the idiot of the village, itās just some people laugh some definitely not, but sometimes, luckily less often now when things go south explode the āmonsterā of rage and hunger and there the things are very bad for both ,total loss of emotional control and sometimes fiscalā¦one very long hourā¦but if you know him itās ok you know he doesnāt want to say or do what heās doing but if you donāt know whatās going on can be messyā¦never happened on a keyboard but i think could turn in a real poo show

This is pretty funny, I got into the same argument with my teacher back in elementary schoolā¦the 70ās. I used the same point, how does anyone know what color the dinosaurs were?

there are some proof for some, but not everyone (eeven less a t-rex), so one can do it as prehistoric planet did or something else (tho I wouldnāt go too far on the feathers due to preserved skin impression, on that Iād see something like tarbosaurus prehistoric planet working)
Melanosomes. They can be found in fossilised feathers and skin, although skin specimens are rare. This area of study is recent, a little over a decade old, so back in the '70ās you were correct.
Cheers,

Unless we have a paleontologist here to say otherwise, I would venture that there are far more species of dinosaurs known, than skin or feather fossil samples currently available and analyzed for each species. I think we have a lot of free range to do colors on our dinosaur builds

Did the dinosaurs have rivets? Maybe we can try to count them?

Imagine the pain it would be if Dinoās had zimmerit, and you would have to sculpt it around their tails.

But some did! Genetic engineering allowed them to be resurrected and bred in quantity at the Iron Sky secret arctic and moon bases. Carried by those Hannibau Flying Saucers to be inserted behind Allied lines, they raised untold havoc.

The colour film back then had a unstable chemistry and museum pieces will have faded and changed hue over time ā¦
