Clarification on My Post Regarding The Ol' Troll

Howdy Liz,

 

Hi Butch,

I wouldn't diss him .. but I'll call him a Knucklehead when I think he is

acting like one. ;-)

Don't bet your last Euro on that. ;-)

Sharing information is great .. spreading misinformation is unfortunate.

Generally, I agree with that .. but not always. Opinons on who should be

the President or what is the best path to Heaven or Nirvana or which top

note should one use in a blend or perfume and such are generally ALL valid

opinions .. there are many ways to skin the cat in such discussions and one

person's opinion is as good as the next person's opinion. This is not the

case with the chemistry of EO .. there is little room for off the cuff

opinion when we are dealing with science .. and there should be little room

for opinions of what AT is when the discussion is on a group that is

supposed to be concerned with the proper and safe use of EO in AT. These

discussions have opened the doors wide for all the wrong ideas and corrupt

people and organizations that I and Martin and Kathleen and many others have

battled for many years. My opinion is that the entire discussion is not

legitimate .. it is confusing to folks who should not be confused .. to

folks who should be learning the realities of the benefits of Essential Oils

vs the emotional highs we can get from other sources that they now wish to

claim are a part of Aromatherapy!

 

You won't find any of this chaotic # & % in the AT course I recommended below

... if it was there I would not have recommended it.
