- Scott,
- Kevin was responding to a question I posed, and I appreciate his response.
- I've used the ointments, and still do use them as needed, but I would prefer
- to find a more natural solution, since the ointments are known to have some
- negative long-term effects. I would appreciate if if you would resist the
- urge to cut down sincere replies with your obviously biased opinion. I
- would hate to see people restrain from making sincere recommendations due
- to fear of being flamed. Let me choose what remedies I try and which I
- ignore.
