*** Mr. Chacma Update ***
I am sorry to be the bearer of bad news but I must inform everyone that Mr. Chacma is not doing well. I received a call from his psychologist who indicated that he is suffering from a sever case of paranoid delusional disorder. This is in addition to his Tourette's which is completely out of control at this point in time. They currently have him on a cocktail of low grade horse tranquilizers including a fairly large dose of Ketamine. This is keeping his cursing in check but unfortunately, the side effects are manifesting themselves in incoherent rants about Les and the future of MDMN. Many of the doctors claim they have never seen anything this bad and have called in several specialists; two from Uganda, one from Argentina, four from Chile, and a whole team from Singapore. They have been pouring over his written and spoken words but all of these eminently qualified doctors are completely flummoxed. While I'm not a doctor, I did stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night and know that this is bad. Mr. Chacma is getting the best help he possibly can but I fear he may be too far gone.
Over the weekend, he had two visitors in addition to me. Both showed up wearing trench coats, fedoras, and dark sunglasses. They reeked of booze, pears, and stale cigars. Neither would identify themselves but they demanded to speak to Mr. Chacma. Without ID, they were turned away, but they did leave him a letter which I have been unable to read. When I get a hold of it, I'll provide a transcript.
In terms of MDMN, I am forbidden to bring up the topic in any form of conversations. The very mention of MDMN, gold, Les, JJ, Greg, or ADL send Mr. Chacma into euphoric rants about untold riches. The issue is that it sends his blood pressure through the roof and last night, he tried to swan dive out of his window. Luckily, he is on the first floor and the window is double reinforced plexiglass so he didn't get far. He did suffer a nasty bump on his head.
As I hear more, I will update the board.
There may be times when we are powerless to prevent injustice, but there must never be a time when we fail to protest.
