I hope he copes too. I'm a little worried. He just called and told me he'd discovered something new about math and proceeded to spend 15 minutes telling me how he figured out a new way to calculate how long it's been since March 2005. It seemed to me to consist of counting from 2005 to 2013 then adding 10 months. But maybe I wasn't understanding him. He just kept counting it over and over. "2006 is year 1, 2007 is year 2, ..." and on and on. I told him I'd just subtract 5 from 13 and add 10 months or 5 from 14 and subtract 2 months.
Finally he gave up on trying to make me understand. I think he's stressed.
