Ah to Hell with it!. I replied to bjs flame in private but a public attack deserves a public response.
Lots of anger there bjs, particularly for a person who hasn't been to a doctor in 25 years. What is this, vicarious crankiness? If you want to discuss, I'll discuss. If you want to go sarcastic, I'm perfectly able to go there too. To answer your questions, such as they were. No I'm not a doctor nor immediately related to any, although I have several friends who are doctors. Yes I am from from this country but I've spent plenty of time in the third world and I'm damned glad that I've got access to the medical care here that you seem to hate so much. If you saw firsthand the misery that exists out there you'd be a lot less quick to dismiss it. And as to arrogance, arrogance is playing at scientist in your kitchen lab in your spare time for six months then proposing to tell men and women who've dedicated their lives to the field that they don't have a clue what they're talking about. My field is computers. I've been doing it for over 20 years. You want to come tell me you've invented a new Super Duper Universal Program that will make any computer it runs on be 100 times faster than the hardware is designed for. Fine, but when we have that conversation you had better know a bit from a byte to start with or I just might be a little skeptical. Arrogance. you speak about the AIDS virus. Who's on the front line exposing themselves to that virus every day in order to care for the sick and infirm? You? No, It's none other than those banes of human kind, the doctor. Save your righteous indignation for something you have a right to be indignant about. Best wishes, Doug. P.S. With apologies to Mike and others, I know this isn't a productive path. Silence from me for the immediate future. -- The silver-list is a moderated forum for discussion of colloidal silver.
