Amanda Baggs on CNN again tonight

Amanda Baggs of Ballastexistenz will apparently be on CNN's Anderson Cooper 360 again this evening. She was featured in an interview with Dr. Sanjay Gupta earlier this year when they undoubtedly learned she has much wisdom to share about autism, normalcy, communication and disability rights.

Amanda hasn't been feeling well lately, as she noted on her blog last week, and under normal circumstances would find the deluge of attention and requests for advice that her last appearance created somewhat overwhelming. As would I, frankly.

Anyway, she's prepared for the added attention as best she can, so check out the show (I'll post a transcript link tomorrow) and cheer her on, but try not to add to the comments and emails demanding her assistance.

I'll put my own note to her right here: Congratulations, Amanda. And thank you for your tireless work.
