It may well be that "half a loaf is better than none", but can the
same be said about having half a brain?

Our garrulous resident numbskull, fyfpoon, is a case in point.  I
would be willing to wager than an MRI would disclose extensive voids
where his cerebral cortex should be.  That would account not only for
his absurd posts on tinnitus, but it could actually explain why he has
tinnitus, as well as an apparent case of reverse-dyslexia.

I would have to say that the evidence in this newsgroup points to an
IQ of less than 75 in fyfpoon's case.

He means well, though, I do believe.  If his head is empty, his heart
may be in the right place.

I know he has tried to serve the best interests of tinnitus sufferers
everywhere with his melange of bogus pronouncements and infantile
recommendations.  The problem is that his disinformation is very far
from being helpful.  That's the problem.  But, since his posts contain
ample evidence of brain pathology at work, I doubt his missives create
much damage.

Let's hear it for the islanders!
