No, I guess didn’t vote, after all. It didn’t accept my answer to eight consecutive “Prove you’re not a robot” questions. ---

Missed the edit window it seems. I was interested by the OP because I saw this [iPads and autism](http://gadgetwise.blogs.nytimes.com/2011/11/29/finding-good-apps-for-children-with-autism/?src=me&ref=general) a few days ago and was blown away. ---

that should have been “You’re at 17” – missed the edit window and I can’t spell this early in the morning (or any other time of day) ---

> [@Elendil\_s\_Heir](#): > > No, I guess didn’t vote, after all. It didn’t accept my answer to eight consecutive “Prove you’re not a robot” questions. I’m doing the “Prove you’re not a robot” method as well…you do not have to put a space between the two disjointed “words” that are separated, but do include any punctuation marks, etc… Also, try clearing your history…I have to on my home computer to get on and vote (with Firefox). > [@don\_t\_ask](#): > > Missed the edit window it seems. > > I was interested by the OP because I saw this [iPads and autism](http://gadgetwise.blogs.nytimes.com/2011/11/29/finding-good-apps-for-children-with-autism/?src=me&ref=general) a few days ago and was blown away. Thank you very much for the link…I will pass it on to Therese…she is always looking for bigger and better apps. Some of those apps look familiar, but there are a few that maybe new to look into. Thanks! > [@Reepicheep](#): > > that should have been “You’re at 17” – missed the edit window and I can’t spell this early in the morning (or any other time of day) > [@Moonlitherial](#): > > 18 again, someone else is rallying! I have anticipated the rankings to bounce around (but more upward rather than downward), but this drives my wife crazy. I always have to explain to her that other causes will try to rally if they see themselves drop a rank (as if they were gonna just sit there and do nothing!), and they are no different than us (except we’re better than them…😉 )…and of course they will try their best to accumulate votes through word of mouth, or likes, links, etc. just like us. As long as the net effect puts us in the top 20 (although I rather feel safer with a top 10 finish) in the $5k category, we should be able to receive the grant following verification of votes. ---
