- Thank you for your concern. I agree with you as do most (all?) of
- the other readers in a.s.d. If you stay here a while you may agree
- that this group might have been more aptly named
- alt.support.changing-your-dietary-lifestyle. I think we are fairly
- level-headed. Your reminder was welcome however -- I noted the
- genuine concern.
