Guest guest Posted July 24, 1998 Report Share Posted July 24, 1998 Hi Ken As Ive indicated, Im not a Szasz fan. I dont know abt the Mental Health institutions, but the activity of some of the steppers resembles the Inquisition - especially some totally off the wall guy on nlp-addict who seems to have a split personality - a religious nut and a complete head-banging religious nut. Perhaps a better analogy is the Chinese Red Guards, who terrorised China in hordes approaching full military battles. Instead of waving Little Red Books, they batter us with Big Blue Ones. P.
