Rally, the truth is, his family sent him off to a special camp that deprograms cultists because they think this is an SF cult site and we've brainwashed their darling boy. It didn't work. Ever see "A Clockwork Orange"?

PS: I saw "300" last night. Eh. I sat all the way through it which for me is a compliment but it's not the kind of movie I'll ever watch twice. Frankly, I thought the Persians looked more combat ready than the Greeks. Lot of over-the-top acting and an annoying comic-book voiceover and I think the moviemakers were confused in their geography or demographics since Xerxes appeared more African than Persian.
