      We might be looking at the latest incarnation of natural selection here. You tried your best to help your friend act in their own best interest and were rebuffed. It’s a shame, but what else is there to do but let it play out?

          A crying shame that. Well, I suppose the only thing I can do I hope it all turns out for the best for him, despite the odds.
