Stephan S. You must get over this terrible Molluskism guilt that burdens you so. In the first place, that is a DISEASE.... "Molluskism Syndrome,'" and you should never feel guilty about being stricken by a disease. No sireeeee! Rest assured that there's a lot of research being done on Molluskism right now, predominantly at the University of Micronesia (http://mollusktics.are.weird.research/~research/htm). Oh.. and don't forget the Molluskism chat on the IRC! Just logon to #molluskism. Don't believe it when folks tell you that "You don't look sick," because you REALLY do! Also... if they advise you to take more vitamins, eat health foods, or to get more exercise, it's important to appraise them that YOUR condition demands you do/ingest none of those things or your symptoms will become worse! I hope this information has been of some use to you (and to any Mollusktics who may be lurking here praying that someone would post this type of valuable information). No need to thank me - I'm always happy to enlighten the ignorant. <giggling> Barb Mallut [log in to unmask] -----Original Message----- From: Parkinson's Information Exchange On Behalf Of Aaron Schwartz Sent: Wednesday, June 18, 1997 10:26 AM To: Multiple recipients of list PARKINSN Subject: Re: discourtesy to mollusks John Morey wrote: > 6/15/97 you wrote: > Jim Slattery wrote: > And you boat people - CLEAN YOUR ACT UP!<<< > >Oh yeah?!

I am GUILTY of MOLLUSKISM!! I am mortified! I am going to immediately run down to my neighborhood aquarium, apologize to all the cephalopods and offer to do public service. I think I have too much protein in my diet. p.s. does anyone have a good recipe for calamari? Stephan 52/6
