Only a few weeks ago I was discussing with a friend my ability, during a prolonged lapse in grooming, to go from zero to Kaczynski in approximately two weeks. He told me that I was vastly underestimating my potential, and that the actual speed of such a transition was more like three days. That stung a little bit, but he's an appraiser, trained in objective analysis. His assessments are never sugar-coated.
