you know just how disconnected from reality they are. I've known two and can tell you that when they're not properly medicated they have no clue what's reality and what's not. I knew one who consumed nothing but Twinkies and vodka until he was hospitalized with a bleeding gut because those were the only "safe" things that weren't poisoned. I've known one who, when things got bad, couldn't correctly identify what time and day it was. The man who set those fires needs treatment, not jail and fines.
