He appears to have some degree of the Aspergers/autism spectrum disorder. He quite literally cannot understand how people see him and why other people don't recognize his genius (both real and imagined). At least this is one possibility. Others who have crossed this list appear to have aspergers or autism too, such as Ranting Rick. He pops up occasionally, posts quite normally and even helpfully, and then lapses back into periods of ranting about how he can fix python and we all should be doing something. He refuses to write code to put his ideas into practice, and berates the list readers for being lazy and unwilling to code this ideas. Then eventually he disappears for months even years at a time before resurfacing. I've always been curious to know more about Rick. Where does he work? How does he live, and what does he do outside of the python list (he appears to only use his e-mail address on this list). Then other times I just worry about coding something cool in python. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
