It really beggars belief.  It's another variation on the one
where complete strangers come up to us in the street and physically
man-handle us or our equipment because they think we need `help'.  And
you can bet that these sort of people will run a mile if we actually
needed assistance.

Is there a psychiatric term for this kind of person, (I can think of
several `layman's,' terms, of course!) Bobby?  If there isn't, there
should be!

    walk two blocks from the car to the elevator.  It may take ten minutes, but
    who is she to say what I need?  Believe me, I've learned to say "uncle" when
    I need to.
