of or pertaining to an individual who is out of contact to a thorough extent with his present-timeenvironment and who does not compute into the future. He may be an acutepsychotic wherein h e becomes psychotic for only a few minutes at a time and only occasionally in certain environments (as in rages or apathies) or h e may be a chronicpsychotic, or in a continual disconnection with the future and present. Psychotics who are dramatically harmful to others are considered dangerous enough to be put away. Psychotics who are harmful on a less dramatic basis are no less harmful to their environment and are no less psychotic. —Freedom Congress Glossary (approved 5-9-90)
