Okay,fair enaugh...i immagined this (maybe not so much in detail,since you  
are the expert in "Derekology") to some extent...
But,why doesn't someone hospitalize him? This is indeed pathological  
(basic psychology course covers the most simplest of pathologies - mind  
you,im not a psychologist or affiliated with this profession).
But there is a dilemma : Why so many followers? Do they crave to BELONG in  
a HERD? (Derek seems to me as a shepperd indeed... he just need the Swiss  
Cow-bell for crap's sake).Did he stop posting on usenet or other services  
that "inflame" his SOUL ? :)
Btw ,who made the video DESKTOP COMMANDER? I crapped my pants a few yrs  
ago when i first saw it...
