I've been distracted recently :-), and didn't take much notice this 
from Michael Britt:

This was ignored by other TIPSters, precisely the kind of experience 
that would be upsetting to any sensitive person. :-)

It seems to me to be a harmless enough website, in the sense that the 
contributors are not asking for any special concessions or indulgence. 
It's a place where people of like-mind (or in this instance, 
like-feeling) can exchange ideas and experiences, not a bad idea, and 
one that the arrival of the internet has enabled.

I was recently contacted by someone who invited me to take a look at 
the site
for "highly sensitive" people.  Obviously the term isn't in the DSM and 
based
on my perusal of the site I have to say I'm a little suspect.  Any 
thoughts on
this idea?
