Apparently there was some talk about removing delusional as a classification from the DSM due to its definition being, in part, that it was an _unshared_ belief (which seems to be a loophole for not locking up the religious). With the advent of the internet, it's almost impossible to _not_ find someone who agrees with you, no matter how batshit crazy you might be :) -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
