> If people would suffer from the site being shut down, that suggests a clinical relationship in which the site is operated to relieve suffering,
I think this statement might represent an important error in logic. I think there would be people who would suffer from the shut down of just about any kind of support forum, despite a lack of a clinical relationship with a moderator. I think there would even be people who would suffer from the shut down of CNN. Support and education can exist independent of medical clinical management. If you will notice, Dr. Hsiung NEVER submits posts offering medical clinical advise. He could just as well be a plumber in the way he functions here. Even plumbers have opinions as to what constitutes civil discourse. Does a plumber have the option of moderating his website in the way he pleases? I don't know.
