I have it diagnosed as Zuikophrenia... one of his other personalities....  
that's it: he has a 2X, 3X, or 4X or higher multiplier in his mind...  alter 
egos are created to explain away, rationalize, justify continued collecting, 
hoarding.  He talks to them.  They talk to him.  Encourage.

As for the P*n*t*x gear, it's really OM, mislabled intentionally for 
self-delusion, so he doesn't have to face the extent of his fall into 
Zuikophrenia honestly.  To us, he's lying.  To himself, it's a normal, 
healthy life.

Pretty soon, he'll start speaking Cajun, not Canuck.... sound kinda like his 
Prime Minister with the funky crooked mouth....

Maybe we should just leave him be, and observe.  After all he's a great role 
model.  He's getting away with it right under his wife's nose.... er, ah, I 
mean, oh shoot!  Busted!
