OFF to INFINITY

Patrick claims he understands Eintein's theory of gravity and can do calculations with Einstein's tensorial field equations. He claims he understands Hawking's theory of quantized gravity and his theory of black hole entropy and can do calculations with Hawking's equations. And on it goes...He claims that by reading the books in the Oceanside Public Library and going on the internet and doing graduate physics problem sets....that he has mastered relativity theory and quantum gravity theory etc. etc. I see him writing things on little slips of paper (that are provided by the OPL).with little pencils provided by the OPL...Then he transcribes his notes in to either a Word document or documents or in to email messages to himself. I have asked him about this. He does not offer to share his writings at all. He told me that he writes notes to himself talking about being homeless and what he would do if he were in charge of helping the homeless. He says he has been writing emails to himself since about 2003. He will not share his writings with me or anyone else I believe. He has the capacity to be doing important physics and mathematics work. But most likely he is just perpetually going over old, long established results and not adding anything new. At about 70 he is heading off to infinity in Oceanside as the grandmaster of the professional homeless. I believe he could live here at Milica's House if he would just apply for Social Security retirement about 8 years ago.....he says he is "100% happy with his living situation", however, and so he goes off to infinity. He may have important results in his perhaps 1000's of emails to himself....But perhaps no one will ever know.
