i hope you can accept my apology along with my regrets if there is anything else i can do to atone for my mistake in your mind please tell me - i don't know what else to do janet Janet, I called the 800 number Paul put on the list and talked to him this morning. He's a very nice young man , just a year older than my daughter. He also has PD, and as a fellow sufferer deserves not to have to confront the things , which were said about him on this list ,when he comes to work on Monday morning. He is also not the only one who feels we run a closed list here, and that anyone disagreeing with us, is told to go elsewhere. We all need to work on that, not just you. I'll grant you this is a support group, not a PD subject list only, so some people DO have wrong expectations. I don't believe there is anything else for you to do now. One can only Mea Culpa so many times, and I feel you have reached your allotment. I have a suggestion, the next time you feel someone is using an alias ,please bounce it off a few of your friends first. Let them see if they come up with the same conclusion which you did. Then confront that person off-line instead of putting it out on the net. You are excellent at research on PD & CD, why not stick with the subject you know best? That is the way specialists are made!! You do provide a service for people who own older computers and cannot surf the web, for that you deserve all of our thanks. All of this of course is IMOHO. just me, Marjorie
