[sumo] Hakatoriki

[Judith Douglas]

As a psychiatric nurse,  I find it a stretch to believe that he is 
anything other than incredibly neurotic with his various compulsive 
physical behaviors.  It is not uncommon that these behaviors become 
more intense.  This is definitely not an act.   He cannot control 
himself.  To say "relax" is to say xycpwklvmy.  The same goes to our 
beloved Phil.
