    Dr. Dutton's concept of what makes a psychopath would include people like Richard Feynman. Perhaps he should refine his ideas a bit. Granted, the characteristics that make for a successful psychopath are the same as lead to success in other fields, but these characteristics are not in themselves enough to designate a psychopath, at least not without drastically changing the meaning of the word.

    I had been looking forward to the interview about Dexter (one of my favorite characters), but was do disappointed, I didn't finish it.
