"Ya'all see......" When did a SKW FO (soon) start a Southern accent? Wishing to move here to ATL? It won't happen for you, or your "friend" Uncle Steve. Stay up there in Twin Falls, and enjoy snuggle time. Funny stuff!
Bye Bye---General Lee
You see Genny,
Only an individual with a personality disorder would reply like you do. You profess to be a DAL pilot, but the real truth is you would not ever be able to pass the psych test. You are, as I have stated, most likely an individual with:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asperger_syndrome
Asperger syndrome (AS), also known as Asperger's syndrome or Asperger disorder, is an autism spectrum disorder (ASD) that is characterized by significant difficulties in social interaction, alongside restricted and repetitive patterns of behavior and interests. It differs from other autism spectrum disorders by its relative preservation of linguistic and cognitive development. Although not required for diagnosis,
physical clumsiness and atypical (peculiar, odd) use of language are frequently reported.[1][2]
The syndrome is named after the Austrian pediatrician Hans Asperger who, in 1944, studied and described children in his practice
who lacked nonverbal communication skills, demonstrated limited empathy with their peers, and were physically clumsy.[3] The modern conception of Asperger syndrome came into existence in 1981[4] and went through a period of popularization,[5][6] becoming standardized as a diagnosis in the early 1990s. Many questions remain about aspects of the disorder.[7] There is doubt about whether it is distinct from high-functioning autism (HFA);[8] partly because of this, its prevalence is not firmly established.[1] It has been decided that the diagnosis of Asperger's be eliminated in DSM-5, to be replaced by a diagnosis of autism spectrum disorder on a severity scale.[9]
The exact cause is unknown. Although research suggests the likelihood of a genetic basis,[1] there is no known genetic etiology[10][11] and brain imaging techniques have not identified a clear common pathology.[1] There is no single treatment, and the effectiveness of particular interventions is supported by only limited data.[1]
Intervention is aimed at improving symptoms and function. The mainstay of management is behavioral therapy, focusing on specific deficits to address poor communication skills, obsessive or repetitive routines, and physical clumsiness.[12] Most children improve as they mature to adulthood, but social and communication difficulties may persist.[7] Some researchers and people with Asperger's have advocated a shift in attitudes toward the view that it is a difference, rather than a disability that must be treated or cured.[13][14]
Your obsession with the industry explains your ability to reference details, but your inability to produce details that only a pilot actually working in the industry would know defines who you are. The obsession with the USair merger(or lack there of) is a classic example of an individual with the syndrome. Your 17K posts provide more than a snapshot of your thought processes, it's more like a home movie and as such is quite telling.
It's ok to want to be someone that you fantasize about, even an airline pilot!
