You might want to try a mixed strategy where you reveal different information to different potential employers. Since you only want one job, you would likely gain by this variance increasing strategy.

It doesn't sound like chemotaxis101 can easily use a mixed strategy, as he intends to publicly disclose his diagnostic status.

Note that what I'm going to diclose is the fact I have Asperger's, rather than the underlying (unrelated) reasons for the gap in my resume.
