Nice to see some Tom7 love here! I feel like he is the Incredible Hulk of obsessiveness. His rabbit holes are the deepest. Once he gets something in his head, there is little that can keep him from plumbing even the deepest depth of a topic - making the improbable possible all in the name of subverting expectations.
