Off topic, but this is why I read the comments first when I see links to some websites. They simply take too long to get to the point. I spent 5 minutes on this and all I've learned so far is that for some reason, courts deem certain people incompetent and appoint guardians. I don't know why they do this, how the assess the people, and how the guardian benefits. I want to find out but I lack the patience to read through the New Yorker's somewhat pompous style and rely on the quotes in the top comments.
