I too have given up reading Crippen's rants. He sounds more and more like the doctor up the road, who tells people to 'pull yourself together' when genuinely depressed, prescribes beta blockers to asthmatics and shouts at you if you dare to challenge his superior knowledge. Awful man, who is well known for being nasty to his wife. I wonder if he is actually Dr Crippen? I have been reading Inspector Gadget for some time, and a damn good read it is, too.
