He's lying.
Autism is no epidemic. Diagnostic criteria changed.
In the mid-70's a child had to be severely impaired to get an autism diagnosis.
Now autism is recognized as a spectrum.

Kennedy says HHS "launched a massive testing and research effort," involving "hundreds of scientists from around the world."
"By September, we will know what has caused the autism epidemic, and we'll be we'll be able to eliminate those exposures."

Kudos to the school administrator who wrote this letter for making it clear to families what happened and who they should blame. This is the way to build a coalition--with a shared adversary and a reason to fight.

Bob Uecker called baseball games for so long that he was the voice of our childhood and the voice of our PARENTS' childhood. Everyone reading this has probably been transported this morning to a moment from their first days of understanding baseball. Who else can have that universal effect?
