Anyone ever hear about/read about the North Pond Hermit? Been a few years now but dude lived innawoods in Maine just outside town for 27 years never making contact with another soul. Stole all his food and supplies from local families, buried all his trash and books he had finished reading in his campsite. Never lit a fire, ate mostly junk food, always kept his face clean shaven and looked like a normal ass dude (until he got convicted, then he grew the beard) The local towns people got pissed about a phantom always stealing their produce so set up security cams and finally nabbed him. The feds diagnosed him as an Aspie, no surprise. Super intriguing tale, wish I had more info on this guys life. This article is about as good at there is out there, he was a recluse so he didnt tell many people his tale and you can tell he was even annoyed by the interviews. Thoughts on the hermit life /out/?
