About Dan Olmsted:
Dan Olmsted (site, twitter) is a former editor at USA Today. From 2005-2007, he wrote the "Age of Autism" column for UPI. He is the editor of The Age of Autism, the nation's first daily Web newspaper for the environmental-biomedical community – those who believe autism is an environmentally induced illness, that it is treatable, and that children can recover. For the most part, the major media in the United States aren't interested in that point of view, they won't investigate the causes and possible biomedical treatments of autism independently, and they don't listen to the most important voices – those of the parents. We do all those things, and more.
