Paul, I remember that was 1987 I went to a Kolkata mental home to meet the resident doctor. He told me to stay one evening with patients( no maniac patients). I found a patient very nagging. When asked the duty nurse told me he was just like a baby and only a small quantity of food could satisfy him.That's the cue Paul...rajat
