Guest guest Posted February 24, 2003 Report Share Posted February 24, 2003 Dear Group, I am sorry about the previous post. I sounded like such an autocrat and that is not what I had in mind at all. Sometimes I just get too tired. I do care about what the group wants. It is just if you have 900 members, you have 900 individual wants. It is no excuse, but I was tired and somewhat ill when i wrote that earlier I will try and help disseminate good information to the group. I do care that good health information is made public, as much as possible, so that others can be spared damage and can find health. In our search for understanding of health issues, I just hope that we can try and care for each other in our search and let that be one of our main principles. If you feel squimish about any article that you feel has political overtones, please try and look at it and try and determine the truth to it, not if it fits your preconceived idea of political correctness. If you determine that it isn't true (from as neutral as possible viewpoint, not your own partisan politics) then think and post your reasons. Do not post just because it injures your idea of what is correct political thinking. We have to become somewhat non political animals and become just human animals. We have to be able to see what is good for the health of everyone, to see and acknowledge it openly, and not just have selective vison and be critical only because it is of the opposition. Once again, I do care what your wishes are. We will just have to start out, feel our way along, and try and take it in an easy manner. thanks, Frank Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hardly. Sour grapes? What do you mean? How about these 2 quotes: I agree with Rena and Barbara, no politics unless it pertains to a health issue. Good health groups are hard to find, political groups are in abundance. Have a great week everyone! Deborah And: My opinion of this politic thing is to limit it to the necessity of tying it to the health issues at hand. Otherwise, I feel only health issues need be discussed in this group.

Guest guest Posted February 25, 2003 Report Share Posted February 25, 2003 It means that I read the messages and a few didn't want any politics, some wanted all out anything on the board. The majority I read, as believeing that political issues governed the what, where and who about our health and wanted to be aware of the issues as they came up. You wanted only a minimal with an example of " codex " as the type of posting you thought were admissable. Codex, in my opinion, is waiting till the " down to the last ditch, crunch type, emergency, shit, no they are not. type response. Personally, I would like a little more forewarning before the bastards try to screw over me. If it is that big a deal to you, just delete the offending messages. or you might think about starting a group the way that you like. You might discuss it with Deborah, Rena, and Barbara.

Guest guest Posted February 25, 2003 Report Share Posted February 25, 2003 Frank, I would like to go on the record here as saying that I really like this group and don't want to be lumped in with the opinion of this poster because we do not share the same views. I am fine with whatever gets posted here. I know where my delete key is if I don't want to read a certain post and am perfectly happy with the guidelines of this group. Rena If it is that big a deal to you, just delete the offending messages. or you might think about starting a group the way that you like. You might discuss it with Deborah, Rena, and Barbara.
