dear Xeno, yes taking risks, living on the edge, etc. And all just from participating in the Funny Farm Lounge! BTW, I have about zero contact with the cosmetics industry. I get my aloe vera gel in a health food store and have found it to be beneficial for a number of skin ailments. It pacifies pitta too, just in case that's of any use. I'm glad that you found a product with adequate scientific research so that you feel safe using it. Another arctic vortex over night. I have various faucets dripping...

[FairfieldLife] RE: Blah blah and blah blah of the blah-blah? (was Re: NSR and BM of the M-Ch?)
This is, um, nonsense. Most of those who participate here already know the jargon, and if anyone sees a term they don't understand, they can always ask, or try Google. There's zero reason to expect all posts to be written so a lurker who knows nothing about TM can understand them instantly. One increasingly suspects that Barry's anti-jargon crusade is not about jargon but about giving himself opportunities to stalk and demonize people he doesn't like. (Same with his spiritual experiences crusade.) It's not so fine if you were ever trying to actually communicate to the occasional lurker who might appear here, wanting to learn a little something about TM, or even spiritual practice in general. But I guess that's not what you're trying to do, right? You'd prefer to keep writing jargon-filled stuff that gets zero replies. Anyone who wants to reply has to come up to your level and stop being so ignorant. Did I get your position on all of this correctly? How long has it been since you ever *gave* an intro lecture, Buck, or even wanted to?

I'm trying to get through to people who *no longer realizing they're using it*, and that doing so is *excluding* people from what they're trying to say. Card was looking for an answer and anyone who knows what NSR and biija mantras are and could possibly answer the question will do so. And anyone who doesn't (I have no idea what NSR means) are excluded. People who are ignorant of NSR and biija mantras are always free to improve themselves with Google searches further. A Google search for NSR returns -- in order -- National Skills Registry, National Scouting Report, and National Swine Report. Which do you think Card was referring to?
[FairfieldLife] RE: Blah blah and blah blah of the blah-blah? (was Re: NSR and BM of the M-Ch?)
I also find Doctordumb's assertion that they should just ask if they don't understand things to have a subtle and not entirely pleasant intent. You can cherry pick until you are blue in the face, Barry. The fact remains that the person I was addressing was lurking on the BATGAP forum, and rather than ask a question, he was making assumptions, which he then posted, on here. This has nothing to do with language that is difficult to understand, and much more with your emotional instability and immaturity. But, please, don't let that stop you.:-) Regards, Doctordumbass

Share, making a medical recommendation on the basis of what I said is rather risky don't you think? I did not mention the condition, just the chemical used to treat it, and it is used for a number of purposes. From a medical point of view, aloe vera has not been researched enough or well enough to come to any medically useful conclusions, though the cosmetic industry seems to have made it one of its poster child products. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, sharelong60@... wrote: Xeno, aloe vera gel...

WTF? Xeno, do you have a burr up your butt? Chill out a little. You asked if someone had an alternative for treating your skin condition. Share made friendly suggestion. What's next, you gonna try to get her cited for practicing medicine without a license? Lighten up dude!
