> It is quite hopeless to fight against the use of terms such as
"crazy," "nuts," "loony tunes," even "lunacy" and "lunatic," to apply to
intellectual, social, or political characteristics. But your (and my)

to apply to people who actually suffer from mental illness.
I agree with that. Californians are still fair game, though. They get the nice weather, we get to make fun of their craziness.
