41. The woman needs a "handler"
She appears to be afflicted with a severe personality disorder. And I say that as one who loathes the rampant casual use of the term "personality disorder."

It's not necessarily a hopeless situation, plenty of people who have had such disorders have, nonetheless, made significant contributions to humanity in spite of themselves. Bev might be able rise above her affliction, which seems to cripple her interpersonal relationships time and again, if she would seek some wise counsel.

Basically she is way too concerned about "her turf" and getting credit for herself personally. When others make contributions, she panics, lashes out recklessly and threatens lawsuits all around. Then she goes back to being rather charming and enthusiastic about team work and all. Then the cycle repeats. When the team gets going again - there goes Bev - popping off at those who have helped her. It's a destructive pattern that she appears to be locked into.

This is pretty bizarre to discuss this in this public forum, and I believe it to be against our rules here at DU. But Jeez Bev, get some help so that when you feel people are encroaching on your turf, you can check that out with someone who can help you evaluate whether your suspicion is real or imagined. Every time I've seen one of these episodes occur - it's been your imagination that has caused you to beat up on people of honorable intention who have given valuable assistance to you and, more importantly, to the overall effort to achieve the crucial goal of transparent, verifiable voting processes.
