Hi Cari---I don't know about PIE, but it has been my experience that this
sort of "feelings thread" happens pretty regularly on CARE wihout naming a
topic. If you want to suggest one there's certainly no problem that I can
see--I and others often do, but not in a formally organized way. I thoink
in Chuck's cae, because he's not a CG, he misses that on CARE--

>>I would propose that we take turns in choosing a weekly topic to exchange
>>views about. This could be as simple as "Depression," or "Anger" or a
>>little more elaborate, such as "What are the positive things PD has
>>brought into your life." An always OK topic would be "How is your NOW,"
>>a catch all to allow discussion of today's experience with PD, its
>>challenges, absurdities, teaching ability, etc.

>>If anyone is interested, please advise, and you are welcome to post me
>>privately.
