--- Quote ---The fact that he has treated them does not make him an expert on their disorder. He has treated something unrelated to their disorder, not the disorder itself, and has only made unresearched observations, from what you've said.

Being a doctor doesn't mean a person knows everything about everything. CASE IN POINT: Dr. Phil.

Well Jesus H. Christ doing loop-de-loops on a freakin' biplane, I'm sorry if you think I ought know more than a doctor does about MEDICINE and HEALTH. Apparently I can no longer take the word of someone I trust in a field he is, if not involved in, at least within walking distance of.

--- End quote ---

Everyone ought to be aware of both physical and mental health, at least with passing knowledge of well-known abnormalities or ailments. Being completely ignorant of the functions of the mind and body is a waste of sentience.
Further, mental health and physical health are two separate parts of overall health, each with many subfields and specializations. One person can't possibly be an expert in all areas. Trusting one person to be completely knowledgeable about something that isn't even his field of study and practice just because they have a PhD is naive.

So Hanners 'wins.' Shocked, I am. Wil slides into second place, which, as I said, is odd, because I knew people like Wil when I lived near a college. I suppose others aren't so fortunate (or are fortunate, depending on how you look at it). Sven comes in third, but really not that much ahead of Marten and Raven. What does that mean? Hell if I know, but it's interesting.

And Miss Probability is Penelope. I concur, especially given recent developments, which explain her tendency to rant and the fact that no one seriously believes she's Pizza Girl.

Anyway, raging debates on who knows what about mental health aside, it's been fun. Thanks to all for voting and for weighing in.
