I must disagree.  Bird, surprisngly has things together pretty well
(considering his father's suicide).  He does seem a little indecisive.
This hardly warrants a disorder, however.  In fact, he seems to be doing
quite well on a level of social functioning.  I feel that we should
honor Larry's service to the C's and wish him well w/ the Pacers (until
they face us!!).
