Has House (or other main characters) Changed?

[barefootpuddles.livejournal.com]

One of House's mottos, and David Shore's themes, is that "people don't change". Yet for some of us, there is some compelling evidence that this may not be true.[Poll #1821759]

Sometimes I wonder if the show's insistence that people don't change is so that House can have an epiphany at the very last moment and say 'Oh..guess what! People DO change after all!'...XD
Anyway, in a show with so many writers and several inconsistencies I find it hard to see the boundaries between the characters and the creators. I don't know what to categorize as change/character evolving or simply the specific writer's opinion/headcanon about the character.
However, in general, I believe that some of the characters have evolved but I can't say that anyone has fundamentally changed. And I guess that's what they mean when they say that people don't change too. I dunno, in my eyes, evolving (or devolving in some cases XD) is not exactly the same as changing.
