I'm in love with this blog about arthropods and its author, a seven-year old boy with autism. The boy, known as ABC, dictated the information to his mom. PZ Myers linked to it and brought over 9,000 people. 

Maybe this boy will take that obsessive personality and be able to do amazing things in the future. Like this woman who mapped out the neuron patterns of roundworms.
