Dude, I have no influence, though by being in-between I got blasted. lol. But heck. Should the lady go around other threads to see what is up? Not. Civil war? So what. Let the lady enjoy her peace here. Poke her and point things out when need be. But let us let it be? If anyone is disturbed, 'tis I. I am quite sure I am quite more insane than any here, and how dare any claim to be more so. I would take offense. Not that I get paid for it, which lots of insane people do. But disturbed? On the edge? Crazy? If you don't really know crazy, shut your mouth. You've no more right to speak than to speak as he does. Try being really really crazy. People just talk stupid. He isn't crazy, nor disturbed. He just doesn't like you. People have drug stuff about me and things I've said all over threads. Are they all disturbed? No. They just aren't nice.

Do you recall that in 70s and 80s we went through a purge of boarding up state hospitals across the land. Those many thousands confined were dumped onto the streets, and some remain as the homeless persons you see having animated conversations with themselves as they shuffle along the sidewalk. Others became sheltered by relatives, and fairly often some of these ultimately blow, and then become the persons that make the headlines when they explode in a violent rampage. By statistical probability, some who might otherwise be in those institutions have found their way here on SI. This is probably good, as they can exist here as aliases, exchanging paranoias and hallucinations in a harmless manner, while being happily confined to 2-D space where they can do no great harm. Just a thought. (Disclaimer: I refer to no one in particular).
