No one here interested in the concept of not having direct human interaction for 27 years? Regardless of how he achieved it?
There is much to learn from this case. I suspect only a few handfulls of humans in history have completed that epic journey.
I personally know poeple who have solo nonstop sailed around the world, speaking on the radio every day, and even that has a huge impact and is less than a year.
Perhaps we can put aside the moral aspects with how he achieved it and focus on the rest of this astonishing edge case?

From his wiki page (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thomas_Silverstein https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thomas_Silverstein): > He has been in solitary confinement since 1983, when he killed prison guard Merle Clutts at the Marion Penitentiary in Illinois. I'm betting there are other people in US prisons who have been in solitary confinement for 10+ years.
