They don't have GID, as a rule.
Don't confuse him with the facts. Even after the Mayo Clinic adopts the DSM-5 revised terminology (as they and every other reputable medical and psychological establishment doubtless will), I suspect he'll cling to the outdated scheme because he thinks it bolsters his case. The change DSM-5 will introduce was pointed out to him dozens of pages ago, yet he's no closer to acknowledging that his terminology is now moot. You know, his intellectual scruples and carefully considered research being what it is.
