As I have stated previously, there are only a handful of people who post
here regularly who I consider worthy.

Narcissistic Personality Disorder Diagnostic Criteria
A pervasive pattern of grandiosity (in fantasy or behavior), need for
admiration, and lack of empathy, beginning by early adulthood and present
in
a variety of contexts, as indicated by five (or more) of the following:

1.. has a grandiose sense of self-importance (e.g., exaggerates
achievements and talents, expects to be recognized as superior without
commensurate achievements)
2.. is preoccupied with fantasies of unlimited success, power,
brilliance,
beauty, or ideal love
3.. believes that he or she is "special" and unique and can only be
understood by, or should associate with, other special or high-status
people
(or institutions)
4.. requires excessive admiration
5.. has a sense of entitlement, i.e., unreasonable expectations of
especially favorable treatment or automatic compliance with his or her
expectations
6.. is interpersonally exploitative, i.e., takes advantage of others to
achieve his or her own ends
7.. lacks empathy: is unwilling to recognize or identify with the
feelings
and needs of others
8.. is often envious of others or believes that others are envious of
him
or her
9.. shows arrogant, haughty behaviors or attitudes



I wish Harry would go through these, one by one, honestly. I think it
might be
an eye-opener for him.

I am sure Harry Krause has. I am also sure he is in complete denial though.
The man (I use that term loosely) definitely needs psychiatric help and I
hope he seeks it out soon.
