    The resignation of the Pope has brought this topic up again, and I know a couple of threads on this forum addressed this, but I read this article in Foreign Policy today and thought it was quite applicable to our previous threads on aging members of the Big 15.

    Quote:

    Even beyond the immediate effects of illness, aging can have pronounced effects on personality. Put simply, in general people really don’t mellow with age. Instead, Jerrold Post and Bert Park have shown that they tend to become exaggerated versions — almost caricatures — of themselves, with their normal tendencies and patterns becoming intensified.

    For those who are already suspicious of a BKP presidency, this idea out to be disturbing.
