I am very confused at this moment. I thought this list was to help people with PD...to support and answer questions. If this is not the case please advise. I am new this week and really do not need to spend important time sifting through arguments and insults. I'm finding this experience more distressing than helpful.. should I leave the list? -----Original Message----- From: Earnie & Barbara Knight <[log in to unmask]> To: [log in to unmask] <[log in to unmask]> Date: Wednesday, November 24, 1999 12:38 PM Subject: Re: NON-PD: Yes, just who are you? >Greg: > >06:12 AM 11/24/99 -0500, you wrote: >>IN RESPONSE TO JANET'S OBFUSCATION. >> >>Janet, >>I thought you were taking a leave or something? > >I think your churlish comment about Janet "taking leave or something" is >way out of line.
