Don't you guys get it? The CB band is full of Kevin Browns. As one trained in psychiatry, I can tell you they are usually very lonely individuals who crave attention, and the way they get it is to rub people the wrong way -- any response or recognition, even negative, feeds their need for recognition. This need for recognition, or calling attention to themselves, can manifest itself in such practices as going against convention (typing in capital letters, for example) or creating dissention in a group setting. Unfortunately, they border on the psychotic or are psychopathic individuals and hide behind anonymity or false identity; moreover, they create fantasy worlds for themselves, often with delusions of grandeur and presumed authority. Very often they are volunteer firemen or participate in some other activity where they get a feeling of control or power, often carrying a badge (even fake) or license of some sort to legitimize their fancifiul status. Fortunately, if they are ignored, they usually go away and bother some other group where they can continue to get the attention they seek. One thing they can't stand is being ignored. http://auctions.yahoo.com/
