Autism does not automatically mean mental retardation. I have Aspergers and I have a genius level IQ.

Yes, it is a spectrum but in it's most extreme form it produces retards who are absolutely useless to society. I myself am probably on the autism spectrum, my father certainly is. Autism usually comes hand in hand with high IQ, as you have mentioned. Some people win the genetic lottery and some people get hit by the genetic short bus. That's the way it goes.
