Well, somewhere along the line I suspect there's a bit of "that guy was
nuts" in the reasoning for referring to him.  But you're never quite
sure, when someone refers to something like that, if they were taking
him seriously.

You didn't notice a "you've got to be kidding?" hidden in my first
paragraph?  ;-)

I read a fair bit of what was on that site, but my eyes glazed over
rather rapidly.  It was like proving a banana by discussing elephants.
