QUOTE(WhispersOfWisdom @ Mon 3rd March 2008, 11:19pm) *




I admire the people that have come forward trying to help Guy Chapman, JzG.

I know first hand what it takes to do an intervention for someone that refuses to admit that they have a serious problem with life; living.

Guy has some serious problems with mental and physical health, albeit he may someday surrender to the truth and win. He is bright and I suspect he is deeply loved by his family.

A break would help, but may not, in fact, change the "Guy." Sometimes it takes rehabilitation, but it always takes a miracle in the form of a spiritual transformation and an experience that is truly spiritual. The recovery does not have to happen overnight...most often it takes a long time.

Guy clearly has the "me disease" and until he understands it is not all about him, he may never recover.

In the meantime he should lose his administrator tools and learn to edit, as Durova has.
She is more of an asset to the project without the tools, right now. Humility is a good thing.

His opinions may become more widely respected if he is forced to talk rather than lecture... and without the ability to push a destruct button or two. (IMG:smilys0b23ax56/default/smile.gif)
