Now Ed,  I need to remind you of a couple of things: 

1. I used the word "could", not the more definite "sure does"
that you and "conservative" talking heads may be more
familiar with.  I did so as I am neither a physician, and never
have claimed to be, nor a rabid commentator. 

Moreover, as I have not yet had the dubious pleasure of
being one of the targets of his rages, I can only infer that
being abused for several years might piss someone off for
a long time.  Anger management is one course often
suggested in cases of PTSS.  So it seems reasonable to
suggest a linkage, right? 

2. If anyone on this list has claim to knowledge about
psychiatry, I would give the honors to you, as you so often
provide evidence of a deep need for a closer acquaintance
with it.

3. Time for your meds again.

4.  We love you in spite of yourself, you old curmudgeon.
