Bob: I seem to recall a phrase about "...do no harm" imbedded somewhere in the principles of medicine. It is harmful - unkind - and yes, nasty - to "bad mouth" members of this listserv - no matter how you feel about their comments. Frank certainly is not at a loss for words with which to defend himself against any potential challenges from Ray or anyone else. PWPs, caregivers and providers have enough on their plates without this kind of interaction. And - perhaps - those afflicted with this disease DO have a different perspective than the rest of us. Not a better or worse perspective - just a different one that certainly merits our respect and attention. Sue c/g husband 74/58 ----- Original Message ----- From: "Robert A. Fink, M.
