"Communication has two aspects - the content aspect and the relation aspect. 
If somebody asks me an interesting question, I am able to speak about it for hours. In case of communication is not used to exchange information, but is for relations to someone, I have a problem with it" - quote from a German TV report about people with Asperger Syndrome.

CNN recently reported about a German company which was especially founded for people diagnosed with Autism:
http://edition.cnn.com/video/#/video/business/2013/01/03/pkg-pleitgen-germany-aspergers.cnn

auticon is the first German company to exclusively employ autistic people as software testers and offer their services (especially software tests) on the free market. Jobs for autistic people: this innovative approach gives our clients the advantage of special high-quality workmanship.
