I am said in UK a best-seller book is:
"The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time"

Here in Italia, in the Italian translation of the book, it is written:
page 35 "Io non sono un ritardato, che vuol dire
spastico,  ................. "
that is, in English, approximately:
"I am not a retarded person, who means spastic, ...."
Anybody knows the original phrase in English?
And, if this is the concept, I think it is a shame to write that "spastic
means retarded".
Moreover in a 2003 best seller!
