Dear MOQ,
        Insanity is a very slippery slope both for its victim & those who would
treat him. Phaedrus was obviously insane when he was given electroshock
therapy, but the same treatment is used to treat severe depression.
There is tremendous potential for abuse in the treatment of the "insane."

thought."-Leon Blum
