You have Amish people out here who can tell you the exact age and species of any midwestern bird just by hearing .5 seconds of its birdsong. There aren’t autistic Amish people? Gtfoh. There are Jebediahs and Elijahs all over Holmes County who can do math faster than a TI-84 and won’t eat mushrooms or onions under any circumstances.
