He may have thought you intended to mislead others when in fact you just made a mistake. But please keep in mind that English isn't everyone's first language, so what they say may not be exactly what they mean.
> Also when registering at this website as a member of this site you agree to accept that not everything that is written is accurate therefore I do not believe I am at fault.
People shouldn't necessarily believe everything they hear. Still, people should also try to post accurate information.
> I hope some of what I have written has been helpful
And please try not to over-react, of course one mistake doesn't invalidate lots of other helpful posts!

I am sorry if my post seemed to be aggressive or unkindly. I was a little bit upset when I read the post and I had to answer. I think we all should read our posts twice before posting to keep right informations and of course not to be unpleasant. In fact my mother language is not English (German) and it is possible that I dont understand some tricky sentences (But please keep in mind that English isn't everyone's first language, so what they say may not be exactly what they mean).

> BobOkay. I dont understand your last statement about over-reacting though.
Repeatedfrom above:
Overposting-PLEASE READ
'Having reviewed the responses I seem to have invoked resentment among other members. Thats Okay. We can agree to differ.
I think since Dr. B has passed med school, can maintain a site of this magnitude he's probably smart enough to figure this one out as well.
Ill second that Kiddo. End of posting on this topic on my part.PaulB'
Ive taken a few hours over the last week to consider the issue and what Ive decided is sometimes to posts lots of messages, and sometims to discipline myself and post once a week.
Thats where I come in.
