Someone who beleives something to be true, when that something can be empirically proved to be nonexistent or otherwise incorrect. A snippet from an e-mail follows:

This snippet is presented unedited, except for the e-mail address, which has been excised to protect privacy - and delusion. As you can plainly tell, the person here has suffered greatly from "BLIEDINGS" - which we think is synonymous with "bleedings" which would make this person delusional, as people (including stigmatics) do not
spontaneously bleed. This person also thinks he can find comfort from his "BLIEDINGS" in studying aerial photos. You may notice that the phrase used is "find some covert", which indicates that this person may in fact be using aerial photos to conduct covert missions from the comfort of his VA
hospital bed.
Whatever he's
looking for, I certainly hope he finds it.
