hi all i am all for robust and frank exchanges of ideas and opinions about pd topics and about non pd topics about menopause and about orgasms about perry como and about pigs but it seems to me that complaining about this list and the way it functions or doesn't function or the way it's supposed to be or the way it ought to be is akin to being invited to my house for dinner and complaining that the beer isn't cold enough and the chili isn't hot enough and why on earth did you make bread pudding and why is the coffee taking so long and what in heck made you invite the jones' of all people the list is the way it is because the host-owner wants it that way why is this so obvious to me and seemingly so obscure to so many others? now, who wants to help with the dishes? janet janet paterson 52 now / 41 dx / 37 onset snail-mail: PO Box 171 Almonte Ontario K0A 1A0 Canada website: a new voice <http://www.geocities.com/SoHo/Village/6263/> e-mail: <[log in to unmask]>
