We screened the movie at our church attendance was 24 people 6 of which have or know of someone who has Autism. My reaction was the movie was good but I was expecting more details on treatment and more details on the road from diagnosis to recovery. Most of the participants were not aware that Autism is recoverable and I received many questions on why if one child has it the other ones in the family do not. One lady in the group refused to believe that vaccinations could have been a contributing factor since she had twins one of which has Autism and the other one does not(NOT Identical Twins). I tried to explain the genetics behind why some are susceptible and other are not. Not sure she understood my explanation. Overall the crowd thought it was very informative and most learned something they did not know.

I screened the film in Montreal, Quebec, and the night was incredible from beginning to end! NHC, a school for natural health consultants, was generous enough to open their doors to us. We had over sixty people: DAN! practioners, OTs, RDI consultants, the HBOT providers, and dozens of parents (the well seasoned, and some who had never heard of biomedical interventions, and never believed recovery possible). After the film we talked and talked. Then we had gf/cf biscotti, and coffee and fruit, donated by Patsypie and Spectrum Supplements, and we talked some more. I have been asked to screen the film again. And lots of people asked me where they can purchase a copy. I'm still smiling!

I saw this beautiful movie tonight and was so happy to have the chance to see it. I fully expected to feel inspired and moved and motivated, and I did feel those emotions, but what surprised me was that as I watched the movie, so much anger welled up in me. I felt so angry about what families have to go through, so angry that the vaccine program is continuing unchecked, so angry that biomedical treatments for autism are being ignored by the majority of medical professionals and others who should be paying attention. Right before attending the film, I read an article in today's Schafer Autism Report from the Wall Street Journal repeating the same tired old mantra that "Whatever the outcome of the [Hannah Poling] court case, the overwhelming weight of scientific opinion is that there is no proven link between autism and the vaccines" with quotes from the CDC, AAP, FDA, Dr. Paul Offit...

It was comforting to read the comments below and to feel that there is hope for change. It's a grass roots movement but slowly catching on and gaining momentum because of the persistance of so many talented parents (as well as a few outstanding professionals who are not parents of affected kids). Thank you so much Julia and JB and all the others who made this great movie and are working so hard to turn around this crazy situation where children are being harmed by our own medical system which then refuses to treat them, and the harm is going unnoticed by most of our media and politicians and autism "experts" and pediatricians and gastroenterologists...

I feel that we are on the verge of major breakthroughs, that the media is paying more attention, that some politicians are taking note, that stories of recovery are proliferating and irrepressible. I hope and pray that change is coming. This movie will help to bring about this change.

Our Premier took place in the Fine Arts auditorium of one local high
school.

The program evolved to include presentations by a local Hippotherapy
provider and the Child Find team of the school. Attendance was small -
30 people, some parents, some service providers from the school and
community. 3 Moms felt compelled to respond that the documentary was
their story. They felt exactly as the parents felt and shared they
had said the same words.

All 3 parents had been toying with the idea of biomedical
interventions. All 3 will be continuing contact to find out how to
move forward. Those 3 parents represent 10% of the viewing audience
AND a total of 7 affected children, including an adult child with
Downs Syndrome.

Thank you so much for making this documentary available so we could
begin outreach in our service deprived state. We have Autism groups here, and Parent support groups - the problem is, they are all associated with a particular university that gets a lot of drug funding money - the speakers they send to communities actually tell parents that biomed doesn't work and there is no such thing as a recovered child...a situation we will be working hard to change, with help from materials like this.

There will be an encore presentation (possibly more) in the coming
weeks. I will report on those as they happen.

It has made a difference already.

Follow up:
The Mom with the adult child went home from the presentation and was on the internet until 2 a.m. - she downloaded Dr Krigsman's video from ARI, and was on the phone the next morning to make an appointment. Her daughter's initial problems began with the live pertussis vaccine, and she regressed with the MMR as well.

We have a new Yahoo! group for New Mexico parents to find biomed info

Service providers in the area are signing up to have their services linked to our website so parents can find them

At least one of the therapists in the area is now looking for signs of gut distress (she says she will never see the posturing and self-injury the same again)so she can refer parents to biomed interventions.

The pebble has broken the surface, and the ripples are beginning to widen!

I hosted a viewing in Maine on Friday evening at a local library. I had 100 people show up. It was a great success. I had one DAN! doctor and 4 DAN! friendly doctors there who answered questions after the viewing. The question and answer period went on for almost 2 hours after. There were many parents there who are doing biomedical treatments already. We had a mingle time after which worked out well. Many new parents seemed very excited to talk to parents who are seeing success with the interventions.

The local news channel also covered the event. They will be doing a two part series next month on the event along w/ the story of one childs recovery and another part discussing mhbot as an autism treatment.

A great inspriational film and a wonderful tool to inform parents and professionals about biomedical intervention! This film showing provided a great boost for our biomedical parent's group that had been meeting every month at Barnert Hospital in Paterson, but now meets at Valley Hospital since Barnert went bankrupt in Dec. We did the showing at Valley Hospital in Ridgewood, NJ. There were 40 parents who came--from those who have been doing bio med for years whose kids who have lost the diagnosis or vastly improved to those who were brand new. One couple who came was a therapist who I had spoken to years ago about the biomed and its positive benefits for my son. She remembered that talk when her daughter--who was completely neurotypical-- became autistic over the course of a couple of months after her 4 year old MMR boosters. She took her to a neurologist at Valley Hospital who wouldn't believe that she had no symptoms of autism before that shot at age 4, despite this woman's protests that she works with kids with autism and certainly knows the signs! Fortunately she got her to a DAN! soon after, and her daughter has greatly improved.

DAN! Dr. Jo Feingold answered many, many questions after the film--about chelation, the biofilm protocol, HBOT, diet, etc. Manette Louden who produced the film Vaccine-Nation with Gary Null also spoke about the work she is doing to put together a film about recovery. She was kind enough to distribute copies of Vaccine-Nation free of charge to all the attendees!

Thank you so much to everyone who played a role in putting this film together. I previewed it with my kids before the showing at Valley, and my son really enjoyed seeing the recovered kids talk, especially the little girl who spoke about that yucky yellow drink she had to take before she learned to swallow pills. " I used to drink that yucky yellow drink too!" he exclaimed. "Now I can take the pills, and pretty soon I won't have any more autism either!"

I was thrilled to be a part of this! I hosted along with another "angel." Our turn out was less than I had hoped for and my initial reaction was one of disappointment. However, the responses I've gotten after the fact have changed my mind. Many who wished to see it were unable to because of the weekday showing. So, many families have watched since the initial showing in their own homes with their extended families, friends and therapists! Better yet--I have given copies of the film to all the autism support groups who have asked!

We've also agreed to host another in a few months on the weekend to allow more families to come.

The best thing I've done with 2 of my copies??? I donated them to our local library!!! Since virtually nothing comes up when you type in autism for a search "Autism Yesterday: Autism is Reversible" is huge!!!

I can't imagine how different my child's life would be without biomedical interventions! Thank you so much for allowing us to help you get the word out to parents. Hearing other parents talking about hope and healing means the world to families who have never heard of DAN! and biomedical interventions.

Thank you!!!

Jenn Kurtz

WOW, the movie here was not so well recieved...we are in an area where the 2 larger agencies will have nothing to do with Bio-med/natural or anything that has to do with recovery...but I was able to see the video here with 9 of us...I sent 1 copy to the mountain area families they are about (12). and then 1 to a family I was hoping they would show it to there family/friends at least...then one went out to another family who was going to share it with there church family, so they could understand more about their daughter. I felt like the burden of proof was lofted from me...thank you so much for this DVD...I pray more parents will as for the vaccine titers to be done...Julian's titers came back in the high 300's and then some came back stating no immunity...BUT...we have autism.

once again thank you

Denny

I showed the documentary down here in Evansville Indiana. We had about 25 people and many took notes and asked lots of questions. I've received a lot of feedback on parents starting the diet and trying to get into a DAN! doctor. I thought the film was great and talked about everything from diet to vaccines. Thank you so much to the Handley's for doing this. I had my son's Special Education teachers who have been teaching for 40 years and have never heard of Biomedical. Believe me, your film has everyone buzzing around here. It's keeping me very busy!

Keep up the good work!

Hi JB, Lisa and all who worked tirelessly to get this movie distributed to us all!

Shelly and I joined forces and pounded the pavement to get the word out in our ever so traditional community. In the shadows of Vanderbilt University, our message seemed to fall on deaf ears. No media attention was given to us. We spread the word as best we could and were pleased to have 45 or so attendees at our viewing this evening. My church was wonderful to GR and offered the use of its building as well as provided refreshments for the guests. They have shown nothing but love and acceptance to the two children in our church with autism (mine and one other), both of whom are long time biomed-ers.

I was so pleased to see a local church preschool offered attendance at our premiere as Continuing Ed. credit to its teachers! 10 teachers joined us. Wow, we really opened their eyes. They had lots of questions.

The response was so positive. Thank you for giving us an instrument to tell the story our children so desperately want told! We raised a little money...and will be sending that your way tomorrow.

Thank you again. I was proud to represent GR and was thrilled to be called to action on its behalf!

Karen

Lisa & JB-

First, thank you for making accomodations for the movies!

Putting together a movie like this must have been (emotionally) a difficult thing to do. The viewing definitely raised many questions.
Most important, it inspired the viewers and there were many tears of hope that this can be overcome.

This is an awesome tool for awakening people. I am proud to be associated with an organization that has such tremendous courage.

God Bless and much love.

Jeffry

Hi guys!
I think the film showing in Evanston, Il went really well. We had 50 people, a great panel, and a really interesting q and a. The film was beautiful.
We raised $170. I'll put the checks in the mail tomorrow.
Take care,
Alexandra

We had a great time last night! We showed it at our local MRDD site, ESchool at 7 pm. The local television station announced it at the 5 pm and 7 pm news, and we had about 25 people there (We are a town of 14,000, and NO ONE has been doing bio intervention except me for my son.
In fact, everyone thought I was crazy 5 years ago.) Last night there were parents of kids my son was in Early Intervention with 5 years ago, none of whose chidlren are main streamed like my son is, and there were parents of children in Early Intervention now--ALL of them are excited to get moving now! I am also part of a small group of peple in MRDD (I am on the County MRDD Board) that has formed a non profit here, and we bring a DAN! physician in every three months, and have opened a house where we are trying to 'clean up' middle school aged kids that had to be removed from their parents' homes due to the severeness of their disability. All of these 'hopeless' children have improved and we are just starting chelation now! As a result the critical mass your film is helping to create, the Vice President of our local hospital board has agreed to let me present to the Board and the Recruiting Committee and the chief of Staff, so that they will recruit a DAN! physician.

This film is what a core group of us have been saying here in Appalachian Ohio, a black hole for biomedical treatment,and you gave us such strength and filled everyone with motivation. Thanks! I can't wait to see what happens next!

Tami! Nice Job and Way to GO!!! Good to hear it when we talked and good to read it as well! I don't know who all your volunteers were, but I would like to thank them as well for helping you make this happen! That is incredible!!! WOW!!!!

Autism Yesterday Premiere for Vancouver, WA and Portland, OR

Stacy Cayce and I hosted the premiere at The Arc of Clark County in Vancouver. Thank you ARC for generously donating the space! We had around 50 people who came (Stacy we forgot about the few who had to leave early and the few who arrived late). I was absolutely thrilled considering I didn’t send out the invitation until April 4th. We also provided childcare and there were 13 absolutely amazing children (11 with ASD and 2 NT) there with us. Hats off to Heather who, due to circumstances beyond our control, was our only provider for the evening!

The movie is simply awesome! I’ve spent the last two days on the phone with many people who were there, and it’s my impression that it gave people hope, motivation, support, and inspiration! Oh yeh, before the movie started, I made sure everyone knew that Jenny McCarthy was down in Portland watching with us!

After the movie we had incredible DAN! doc, Dr. Leigh Ann Chapman, available for a question and answer session that went well over an hour. Our attendee’s asked some great questions, and through her answers Dr. Chapman provided our parents and professionals with an incredible amount of knowledge about vaccination and all things bio-medical. Dr. C. YOU ROCK! Thank you sooo much and I can not wait to bring my boys in to see you!

For me personally, I have been on such a mighty high since Thursday night! I feel so full of hope for all of our children and their recovery! I feel inspired, and even more passionate about helping our children (if that is possible)! I felt connected with my community in a way that I’ve never experienced. I also sense through this feeling of connection the possible need and benefit to our community for a bio-med support group for my area and I am considering starting one. One of the ones where you actually meet face to face, and one in which you can bring your kids if you choose or need to. Yes, Inspired!

Lastly, Jenny… I would like to thank you for getting on and posting about the “wealthy” issue. We all live to the extent of our means. That’s just how it is. There are some who have the resources to back track and get at it sooner than others, but in the end we all end up going into serious debt helping our kids. And like Stacy pointed out, even if you are not able to get into see a DAN! doc for two years and pay for the testing, there are many things you can do. The first is educate yourself. Get as many tests done through your traditional doctor regardless of whether they are as sensitive as DAN! testing. These results may still yield something useful to you the educated parent. Second, keep a journal and try the diet or supplements and keep track of what you see. Third, look for studies. We have already enrolled our younger son in one and have seen incredible results. We are hoping that we may be able to get both of them into a second study we have our eye on. There are many, many things you can do to help your child. And I have to say from my own personal perspective that to not do these things and say that only “the wealthy” can afford to treat their children is a cop-out. We’re in debt up to our eyes, don’t own our own home, and are a one income family and we are still managing to do a few things, and it is helping. Luckily – Bush decided that we all will be getting a tax rebate this year and we have ours ear-marked for the most part to finally go a bit further. Focusing on and being able to maintain a positive attitude about what you ARE able to do is a wonderful thing!

Thank you Lisa and JB for giving us Autism Yesterday. And a special thank you to all the families who opened their homes and hearts and shared their children’s stories of recovery to make Autism Yesterday possible!

Jenny:

Thank you so much for allowing us to experience your son's recovery through Autism Yesterday. While I am sorry you are flat broke (as so many of us are now!), I agree with you...it was worth every cent. It was wonderful to 'meet' Ryder...his happiness seems absolutely contagious...and I'm thrilled you now have that...you deserve it.

Hi all,

I need to post this to dispel the myth that all the families in the film (and all those who are doing biomed) are wealthy, and that is the only way you can recover your child. We are absolutely not wealthy, and we are in debt up to our eyeballs. We didn't really care what it took to get our son well, even if it meant taking 100 years to pay it off. Not everyone comes from that line of thinking, nor is everyone comfortable with that, but that's how we felt and we are flat broke! On the (gigantic) upside, we have a child who is getting better and better every single day!

We still have a little ways to go. There are attention issues and still some rigidity, but this child is not moderately autistic, as he was first diagnosed three years ago! He is in regular kindergarten, making lots of friends, and he is by far the best reader in his class. He is happy and social, funny and goofy, and an absolute love. He floors me every day when he comes up with some new insightful thing to say, and I still marvel over how neurotypical some of the things that come out of his mouth are! I don't think I will ever lose that feeling. I can imagine that he will be 30 years old and I will still get chills when he says something that sounds so "normal".

I know how hard it is playing the waiting game, and our recovery (still in progress...the home stretch) came relatively quickly. There are those whose kids recovered in a year, and many who have taken much longer. You still have to keep trying and stay positive for your child and your family. There were times when my mind started going to "it's just not going to happen/he's regressing/this is too much work/I can't go on like this for much longer" but I had to push that out of my mind and keep my eyes on the prize. And I am just so thankful for where we are at now.

Keep the faith everybody! Lisa and JB - love you guys!!! This was amazing!!

My husband and I hosted a local premiere in Ft Worth, TX last night. It was a very stormy night and we still had 33 people show up for the showing including parents, therapists, homeopaths and one doctor. The movie was received very well and we had a tremendous discussion afterward. I've recieved a lot of feedback from those who saw the film and everyone was very excited about it. The film was able to portray what parents who's children are recoverine have all been feeling and wanting to say to the public. The film was able to be a testament to our families' struggles but also their triumphs and hope for all children and families.

In addition to local parents, DAN doctors and therapists, I also invited 100 traditional doctors and the local press. As a result, our local CBS affiliate called me this morning (the morning after the premiere) to ask how the premiere went and to tell me that they are working on a special segment about the connection between autism and vaccines. They have asked to come to our home and interview our family for the report.

While many who intended to participate were kept away by the weather, I was able to arrange with several groups to have additional showings scheduled throughout the meteroplex. Including a local Autism group who until now has refused to welcome a biomedical discussion but this film seems to have turned them around and agree to hold an even for the community and show the film!

Thank you to GR and all of the families and professionals involved in making this wonderful film!

I co-hosted with another local rescue angel and while we had a rather small showing, we did have one person travel 500 miles just to be there! :) The person who ran our sound for us works at a local school. Originally she said she would just start it and leave to go watch kids outside, but she was riveted and stayed thru the whole thing. At the end, she asked for 10 copies to hand out to various parents in her school that she believes will listen to the message. So while it wasn't the huge event we hoped and planned for, if we help even one child, it's all good.

Well, Christina said it best when she said this premier "rocked the Midwest"! I'm overwhelmed by the success of my screening, absolutely overwhelmed. I rented a movie theater in Orland Park, IL (southwest suburb of Chicago). The room held 240 and we were filled about 150 of the seats! The movie was incredible on the big screen, and afterwards, we stayed for well over an hour talking about treatment and politics. Multiple people from the screening have already contacted me today about getting on the path to recovery. I'm exhausted (no microphone in a movie theater is rough!), but it was so worth it. Perhaps the best thing of the night was at the end. A young teacher there who works with children who have Autism said, "You know, the school where I teach warns me repeatedly not to listen to parents who believe their child's autism was caused by vaccines. After tonight, they'll never convince me it was anything but. Thank you, thank you for helping me help my students." Now THAT was something. Thank you so much to everyone who made the evening possible. We changed lives last night.

I helped co-host with another Rescue Angel, our coverage for the Portland OR and Vancouver WA metro area. We had someone as far as Olympia WA come to see the showing.

I thought it would make me cry, but instead I found myself smiling through most of it, for the courage and drive of the families depicted and knowing that is also why I keep moving forward. I hope it inspired the viewers just as much.

We packed the room at the ARC, approximately 45 adults. We were also blessed to have DAN! Dr. Leigh Ann Chapman take a Q&A session for over an hour after the film. We had many families who were familiar with biomed treatments, but also some who where still learning or who had never tried. Dr. Champman has a wonderful way of presenting information that is easily understood and gave parents wonderful information.

To the naysayer about the money, it is far from that. I may live on the West Coast but we are far removed from being wealthy. I did the first two years on my own by reading, researching and learning, before I was able to even take my son to a DAN! doctor. It can be done.

It was the Premiere that rocked Midwest!
A group of about 40 gathered at St. Christopher's Episcopal Church here in Oak Park. There were other premieres in the Chicago area as well-McHenry County, Northwestern University, Orland Park to name a few (hopefully they'll post so we can hear how they went) Thanks so some lovely friends, we had the space and the equipment donated. Some parents had been travelling down this path for a long time. Some had not. Others brought their family members who had supported them along the way. For more than one couple, this was their "date night". Afterwards, we had a Q & A with Dr. Usman and some local parents. Everyone came away with a great feeling of hope. Then, at 4:20 a.m., an earthquake shook a large portion of Illinois and Indiana. Coincidence? I think not! Time's are a-changin'. People are being shaken out of denial as they witness the treatment and recovery of children everywhere. May we have many more nights like last night (sans earthquake)!

Whoa. Why would you assume all the families depicted in the film are wealthy? Kaden's and Rhys' family is not wealthy by any standard. Kaden's and Rhys' real wealth and assets are in the love and passionate commitment of their parents. Although money certainly helps when you have an ASD child, you don't have to be rich to make a difference for your child.

Bravo to everyone who was involved in the film. Melanie, Derek & Julia: You ROCK!!

We had a smaller crowd, about 16 people in all, including 4 kids. We had a discussion for over an hour following the film. There was an Aspergers family that was ready to do some testing to see if they would find anything to fix. I think the information we presented might have been overwhelming. We have a severely physically sick child, and we have extensively researched and explored a lot of treatments, and consequently our experience has been that of a disorder that has been very difficult to treat. They said there was another autism (non-biomed) support group in town but we were told that that was not as "intense" as us. I think your fervor is in direct relation to the extent of damage your child has. If there isn't much off, and you are kind of getting by, the inclination to treat is a lot less.

We had another family doing bio-med that was there talking to the people as well. Both of our families have been doing this for a long time with something to show for it, but our success has not been as quick as the families on the film.

A psycholgist wanted to know how we knew that our kids were actually physically sick. I told her our experience, and my husband later said "there was no stopping you!"

A speech language pathologist took my contact information for a child that was 2 years old, had been diagnosed after the MMR (what a surprise). She was trying to get them to do the diet and they were hesitant and lo and behold now the child has diarrhea.

Another person on the board of the community college took my contact information for the local autism chapter, she said they might need someone to talk about treatments. I said sure.

What was painfully evident was the fact that there is nobody out there from the government telling people about treatments for autism. People are suffering, parents are suffering, their kids have been taken away and they do not even know that they can do something about it. Word of mouth is no way to treat this epidemic - this needs funds, this needs a ton of money, this needs federal muscle to get the word out. Sure we can do our bit and we can talk to people one by one but I do think we are doing a great disservice to the citizens of this country by not providing them the help they so desperately need. You should see the grace and the dignity of these autism parents, they are beautiful people. I was honored to meet some of these families last night.

Finally, the funny thing was - nobody, not even for a second, doubted the vaccine connection to autism. It was a presumed given.

Thank you, Lisa and JB for the initiative. And for the record, yes I did catch Eli Stone last night and it made me feel slightly better. Its very demoralizing and heart-breaking to "see" autism in the community - there should be no autism. Period.

We gave a screening here in Birmingham (UK) last night to an audience of around 30 made up of parents, educators and researchers. Everyone seemed to enjoy the movie and we had a long discussion session afterwards. A lot of the parents present had done at least some biomed and the stories of success can only help encourage everyone to soldier on. The description of two steps back then three steps forward certainly rang true for us and quite a lot of the interviews drew nods of recognition from our audience.
Well done to all at Generation Rescue involved with producing such a great movie!

We had our screening on 2 huge screens at a local church last night. We counted 75 in attendance. After the movie I was able to announce that a local pediatrician is going to DAN! and I will be managing the family's cases, and he will be taking insurance. Not only were we able to share the fact that we have ways to help our children, we were able to say they could find help locally and affordably! We had reps from the local health food store, the girls from Coastal Compounding, a local kinesiologist/nutritionist/chiropractor, and the staff from the ped. office to help answer questions. The local news was there and did a story at 11. I would say it was half and half, families already on board with biomed and those that came to learn about it. Afterwards there was lots of sharing of numbers and stories, it was a great and EXTREMELY hopeful night. Thanks, JB and Lisa, for the time and energy it took to pull off something so wonderful. Did anyone watch Eli Stone last night? A rabbi on the show said that in the Jewish faith they believe to save one life is to save the whole world. Let's just go ahead and assume that last night, hundreds of worlds were saved. I'm proud to have been a part of this.

I just returned and unpacked my car from our 2 screenings today.
The first was at a restaurant across from the CDC.
The highlight of that screening was that a family drove from Alabama to be there. A couple of the mothers had just started treating their kids, a few of us that had been treating, shared our success stories.
Quite amazing that across the street was a multi-million dollar national health complex - but a little huddle of parents were across the street were the ones dishing out real answers for Autism.
From that screening, I drove 40 minutes north to Stone Mountain where we had our second screening at a therapy center.
At that screening we had new parents and one child who had completely recovered. His mom shared their incredible journey. He was so normal, I thought he was a sibling!
A dad of an affected child supplied some professional quality AV equipment
so we were able to view this beautiful film on a big screen.
Again parents of newly diagnosed children lingered, taking home materials and porphyrin testing kits. We had a local DAN doctor field questions and explain labs. It was very nice to see smiles and optimism at both screenings. Parents left with solid biomedical information.

I don't have words for this film. The parents embody my thoughts for the last five years. I could watch this over and over again and not get tired of seeing these beautifully transformed kids!
I will be showing this film wherever I can.
Thanks JB and Lisa for your constant effort on behalf of our kids.
Big thanks to the parents who participated in this project opening the door of your homes to cameras. Because of you, there is a child out their getting help and healing tonight!

We had a double feature tonight showing Finding The Words and Autism Yesterday for 43 parents, educators, therapists, friends and grandparents. There was about an hour of discussion afterwards with people ready to begin adding biomed to their programs. Even those who have already implemented a biomedical program learned something from the videos. Thank you so much GR!

I thought it was terrific -- positive and powerful enough to get the point across but not preachy or political. I saw it in Arlington with a biomed group hosted by Brooke Potthast. She asked me to say a few words after, and I started with, "I can't improve on what Baxter said when his mother asked him what caused autism. 'It's the skeleton and the crossbones,' he said, clearly referring to the thimerosal bottle."
