I was you once. Gary, I started down this road. Though nowhere near as far as you are. When they saw I wasn't gonna stop, they 'controversialized' me. Do you have any idea what I'm talking about? They make *you* the story. And you have a history of schizophrenia, you're a liar, you're a homo, you beat your dog, you're a pedophile, it doesn't matter if none of it's true. The point is no one remembers what you found. They remember you and you're nuts. You cease to exist.
