Oh, I don't think for a minute that he's a bad/evil person.  I 
believe he's alone and lonely, living in a facility, with only an 
iPad for companionship.  That's gotta suck.

The part that gets to me is that he *could* be a good part of the 
community, but he apparently *chooses* not to.  Again, he's been 
asked nicely, several times by several people, to think about the 
methods and contents of his posts, but..... he just doesn't do 
anything different.  I'm not sure if he continues just to stick it 
back in our faces, or just doesn't understand *why* we wish he'd 
do things differently.

I can't tell if he just can't understand (an intelligence issue), 
or doesn't care (a social/develpmental issue); or even something 
else.  Regardless of the cause though, he doesn't change, and that 
is what creates issues.  He takes offense when somebody tries to 
help him improve his correspondence skills, and it just goes 
downhill from there.  My opinion is that it's a lost cause to hope 
he'll improve.  Oh well.  I'm gonna do my best to ignore him most 
of the time, until he does change his ways.
