link #2 of the day

From Salon.com, The devil wore J. Crew: "A new book says that sociopaths aren't just Scott Peterson and BTK. They are your neighbors, bosses -- even therapists."
You have one example of a women caught practicing psychology without a license or even a degree, and she did some pretty devastating harm to her patients. She told them that other therapists were lying to them and even sent one man to a locked ward after his therapist had recommended his discharge. How did she react when she was caught?

There was a complete lack of guilt or even embarrassment. After being seriously questioned about it, she walked out of the room as if she had been talking about the weather. She was one of the spookiest people I've ever met.
Salon.com articles are always worth getting a day-pass for.

ETA: Updated with a link because I forgot to post one.
