<p>The people at autistics.org want to organize an international autistic complaints choir, not tied to a location but to autistic people anywhere (and the music would all be coordinated by net too, but first we have to have the complaints &#8212; both large and small-scale things &#8212; so they can be written into music).</p>
<p><a href="http://www.complaintschoir.org/">To see what a complaints choir is, go here.</a>  (That site also describes the process that usually goes into creating them, starting with getting complaints to people.  And has videos of four complaints choirs with captions in English.)</p>
<p><a href="http://autistics.org/forum/index.php?board=19.0">Feel free to submit complaints etc on the following board we&#8217;ve created for that purpose</a> (and it has links to the videos of two of the complaints choirs).</p>
<p>Please also spread the word anywhere you think autistic people might be interested, and point back to that bulletin board.</p>
