   No, your analysis of PH is flawed, perhaps from lack of data. What   
   happened is that he, like many another "fan" throughout history (there's   
   a reason the word is derived from "fanatic") became resentful when he   
   presumed to tell JMS how to run his life and JMS was forced to read him   
   the riot act. Now he's a fully enrolled member of the "We hate JMS"   
   club, and participates in all their activities, which consist chiefly of   
   smearing their graffiti wherever they can find an unclaimed spot.   
      
   There is, perhaps, no hatred greater than the hatred of the one who once   
   had the unpleasant duty of pointing out in public that you were behaving   
   like a fool. Cf. Pope's persecution of Theobald following the   
   publication of "Shakespeare Restor'd".
