Marjorie Moorefield: You have to date: 1) called me a "sanctimonious hypocrite" 2) suggested that I'm in the early stages of Alzheimers (how old are you?) 3) commented on my acting weird due most likely to medication troubles 4) stated I'm "flaming people" who backed you regarding a post of locker-room humor a few months ago. All this hate is coming from where? And why? I want all of us to discuss PD and facets of PD (including humor) and to save the unnecessary chat for the PD chat-line. I double-checked and triple-checked with many others on the list to make sure I wasn't imagining the scope of the situation. They agreed things were getting worse but told me they preferred to just continually delete these messages on a daily basis rather than contact these folks to voice their displeasure with the way things were heading. I wrote a parody (GUARANTEED OFFENSIVE) to try and approach this worsening situation in my own way and hoped people would see themselves in one of the characters and realize how they appeared to a lot of us. The people that crowed the loudest over my post (8-10 individuals) were the main offenders of continuing threads way past the point where they should have died a peaceful death (though they never saw it the same way). So I wrote to you and others "off-list" (try it..it's easy) so as not to use bandwidth by starting an argumentative thread on the list (like this one) that everyone has to endure and/or delete. My message was short and to the point and read as follows: "Please stop posting this stuff. It is neither informative or humorous". (This is an example of the "many nasty messages" Barb Mallut refers to in her latest "barbed"comments on one of your posts today attacking me. ) So for standing up for what I believe an trying to effect a change in the most direct manner (I don't have the dopamine for long winded replies back and forth), I receive all these cruel comments from you and others? I'm fine, my medications are fine, my mind is clear, my life is good but my honesty and directness really pushes others' buttons.
