Teach him manners? I've tried that, my mom & her husband have tried that. It doesn't work. Since he has MD, he can no onger walk. This affects him pshycologically, in that he depends on his mind to make him equal (or as he thinks, better than) to everyone else. He is a smart person, but he is very bad at grammar (from too much CPU time I think) & he is a little immature from little contact w/ people. So, whenever someone tries to tell him something, constructively criticise him, or teach him something, he either "aready knows it" or he says that they are wrong. It is worse when I do it because he refuses to realize that, even though he is 8 yrs older than me, I am more mature & actually smarter than he is; he thinks that becasue of my age, I am dumb

Sorry to bore you w/ that, but it was to show you what I have to work w/. It is a very sad disease that few people ever get to see beneath the shell on the outside; he is doing realy well w/ it, but he is on a downward slope now
