World: Burmese gatecrasher John Yettaw appears to be insane

  • Yvonne Yettaw • Whose ex-husband John recently started some drama with a Nobel laureate, Aung San Suu Kyi, and got her in trouble. Granted, there is a degree of “I hate my ex-husband SO MUCH” in there, but she did live with the guy, so she knows better than most. • source
