I don't understand something

This guy apparently says that autism is the resukt of stress (presumedly in the mother while carrying the child). If that is the case, why is autism a 20th centruy phenomenum? Thru the ages people have lived under a whole lot more stress than we have in the second half of this century. Wars, famines, plagues, oppressive regimes, etc. Let us fce it, life in the 90's in the US, CA & AU was pretty damn good overall compared to other times, and yet the explosion of autism occured then.

I am putting my money on the triple threat of flouride in the water, mercury in the vaccines, and viral exposures like Hep B at birth and the MMR as the source of autism. These are conditions that are unique to the 20th century.
