ANOS <---- oops, misspelling, accuses me of delusions of grandeur. Here's my psychoanalysis of ANOS <----- oops, again;
He, himself, has delusions of grandeur (too?). His, regarding wanting to be an intellectual elitist. It bugs the **** out of him that no one cares or recognizes. So he goes on the offensive because he's pissed - now the villain.
I personally think NAOS really is a smart guy... maybe even exceptionally smart. A decent mix of book smarts, instincts, and life lessons. Even though I normally have negative interaction with him, I do have some respect. It's just simply minimized by his seemingly incessant need to push everyone else down for the purpose of his own rising... which backfires. If he wants a better board experience, he only need to tone it down a bit and engage in a less snarky, smarter-than-though manner. He will have you believe he doesn't care, but he does.
btw, I'm self-aware enough to be accused of some pot-meet-kettle here (different, but still), so anyone that feels the need to put me in a box, as I've done to NAOS, is certainly welcome.
