Hi ame!

I was born, brought up and live in three towns which are very close together. I don't have such an interesting background :-)

>I've just always been fascinated by languages and began to teach myself French at the age of 12, along with a multitude of other languages (e.g., Russian, Latin, Spanish, Italian, German, Kiswahili, Japanese, Mandarin, Arabic, Irish Gaelic) most of which I've sadly forgotten. My French is still pretty up to par, though, and currently I'm taking a step in another linguistic direction -- studying the evolution of the English language and learning the grammar and vocabulary of Chaucer's English (I've already gotten the pronunciation down -- *beautiful* language).

That's amazing! How on earth did you find time to learn all those languages?

I did French for a few years at school but it was always my worst subject. I wanted to be good at it but I just didn't have the ability. I was good at science but dreadful at foreign languages.

You are a very interesting person. You seem to have taken practically every drug in Pihkal, do you still experiment?

>I really like my name too, but it certainly doesn't reflect how I feel inside anymore... perhaps I should initiate a poll on Social? What do you think? :-)

Maybe you should just call yourself 'ame', then it wouldn't matter how you were feeling. I think I prefer ame sans vie though, it's more unique. Yes, I think you should start a poll on social.

>I'd also heard that, primarily outside the U.S., midazolam syrup is often used pediatrically to treat more severe forms of certain parasomnias. Was I misinformed, or is this really a valid use? Just curious.

Oral midazolam syrup is apparantly popular in some countries, we don't have it in the UK though, we've just got the injection (Hypnovel). As far as I know, oral midazolam is popular as a premedication for children, I'm not sure whether it's used outside the hospital setting. In some countries, oral midazolam is used to treat insomnia in adults, not sure about children.

>I've never had chloral betaine... are its effects/indications much different than those for chloral hydrate?

They're virtually the same, chloral betaine rapidly dissociates in the stomach to release chloral hydrate.

>ashamedly, I don't keep up as well as I should with international prescribing trends.

Lol, you seem to have been keeping up with plenty of other things.

Ed.
