At least, I think this post of his was loopy: https://steve-yegge.blogspot.com/2007/06/that-old-marshmallow-maze-spell.html https://steve-yegge.blogspot.com/2007/06/that-old-marshmallo...

that's one reason I am less worried about him than some, although, I don't want to say that only to have something bad happen to him, that is, a form of complacency. Just because (say) Boltzmann and Cantor had useful insights along the way didn't mean people shouldn't have been looking to support them.
