thank you loni---this old ship can use some confirmation. perhaps appreciation---most don't know 'They' are the 'lab-rats' of modern drug cos. or that there are good drs. and bad. we're trained to trust. i was 21 when i went 48 hours in motorcycle-racing boots, wet--my left leg was discolored by the boot dye, and clearly swollen, awful looking. 1st dr. i saw? he said 'gangrene' and was having his nurse set up an immediate removal of my lower left leg. i've tons of allergies. i told the 'unmentionable'as to what i thought of him and walked. the next dr. listened, looked, said 'allergy'--gave the area a big shot of some anti-histamine---next morning, normal leg. close call. that's why i 'push' 'talk-therapy first'---the wrong drug won't make your leg fall off---but for tens of millions, i feel many would make that trade vs. what may be very close to at least partial chemical lobotomy. your wise cynicism and appropriate rebelliousness influenced this post. still got my leg. but dopamine factory? joy? marketing skills? just have to hope they return---the brain is robust. regards
