About 45 minutes of Speaking and another hour and 30 of questions and answers.

Very interesting, informative.

And somewhat entertaining.

I'd recommend going to see her.

Autism, animal husbandry, diet, exercise, education, manufacturing, finances, parenting, bullying, and a few more topics were covered.


I have a pic with her but need someone else to post it.

She is special.

I've used her ideas to build corrals in the past.

I’ve never seen her speak, and I sure would like to. AFAIK, she’s an emeritus professor down the road at CSU, seems like I’d have an opportunity .

Aside. The biographical movie Temple Grandin, with Claire Danes in the title role is worth watching .

You can email it to me and I’ll host it for you.

Extremely cool. I studied her at grad school..very intuitive. Amazing work done for cattle.

We first heard about her from a friend who had been a cattle rancher, then manager of the beef feed lot at UC Davis.
We have a son who has Asperger's. He's just now, thanks to a psychologist he's working with, able to talk about "Autism Spectrum" issues.

Costco hired her to teach their chicken farmers a thing or three about raising the roaster chickens.

Thanks
