Much thanks Arthur Read fan.

We seem to be on the same page about some things, including the not wanting to be friends but wanting to get along thing. And you're right about the theme.

I figured you had autism but I didn't want to pry and I could have easily been wrong. I actually do have Asperger's but I just refer to it as autism or high functioning autism nowadays. I don't like crowds either, or loud noises!



And you're right, I should reserve the personal information for the blog posts, I was thinking about that earlier and sometime after I read your messages. I should probably just comment on the episode itself or whatever the topic is on the page and then give the rest in a blog post or in one of my message walls, so I'll try to start doing that.

You should see the comment I made on "Nerves of Steal" and the reaction I got from it. I almost want that comment deleted myself so I don't get anymore rude comments, well they're not all rude but they're not the comments I would have wanted, but I'm going to try to hold back from doing so.

I feel you on seeing something for the first time and being sad and then seeing it again and not feeling as sad.

I still think you should share your idea with WGBH but I'm leaving that up to you, I won't make you do something you don't want to. This is what I want to see on Arthur



Yes, I want to see a railroad crossing, but not just any railroad crossing, I'd like one that has signals and gates that look just like this one, or almost like it (basically the X-shaped sign, or crossbuck, the round flashing red lights be them forward-facing only lights or forward and rear facing lights and preferably a gate with red and white stripes and red lights (most cartoon crossing gates don't have lights and although real railroad gates have red and white stripes, some cartoon gates are still black and white or black and yellow like in the early 20th century up to the 1960s. I'm a train enthusiast and I especially like railroad crossings and made this wikia page about cartoon railroad crossings, which I'm still working on, [] You may not be obsessed with Super Nova but I'm obsessed with railroad crossings, have been almost my whole life!



These next pictures have Arthur characters in them. But this is what I wrote to the Arthur crew about. I'm just waiting now to see if they're going to do this because I'd like to see what crossings look like in Arthur, although there was one in "Arthur's Perfect Christmas" and it looked the way I wanted but had a black and yellow gate with no lights on it. But if they don't, as you said yourself, "so be it."

Well, better go now, thanks again for the forgiveness, for sharing with me you have autism, and for your patience and understanding, and the advice on comments! If you're interested you can look on my Deviant Art page, I have lots of Arthur artwork and other cartoon fanart and things. []

Have a wonderful kind of day too!
