He must have changed some since. He wildly jumps from one sinking ship to another, argues that any word can mean just about anything, frequently drifts off in erratic tangential monologues that seem only intended for himself, constantly makes wild guesses as to what I might mean when I say something, even when I have already told exactly what I mean on several occasions. Though he is a little entertaining, I am not very impressed.
