> Just a few words to express my gratitude for all the sane, sensible advice you've given here. You're one of the main reasons I tune into this board, and I will certainly miss your humane and humorous posts. Please be assured that most of us disregard the disguised advertisements and foolish claims of posters like dolphin, while we listen very attentively to what you have to say. Trust in the intelligence of the readers here - it seems to be of a pretty high order.

Sorry I haven't weighed in sooner, but I've been mostly unaware of the flap. I certainly hope you come back since I can't quite imagine things without you here. I also know from having been around awhile, that sometimes you get really worked up about things (usually legitimate things), but you do wisely let the dust settle and yourself calm down some. Do you remember a guy who used to post these incredibly long exhaustive, overly erudite messages which pretty much boiled down to allegations that Bob was a fraud and that we were all endangering ourselves by staying here? I think he visited under a number of different names; the last one I remember paradoxically is "Name". I always felt that the underlying message of his was that we were all idiots who couldn't make informed decisions about things ourselves. This has never been your message, but I do think you have to trust us to see fluff and self-promotion for what it is, in the same respect that people have to take responsibility for understanding that the experience of one with a very legit drug may not translate to another. Sometimes this message is gleaned not from an individual post but rather from looking at a whole bunch of posts to get a feeling for how the board works. Any post in a vacuum might seem suspect. I also don't think Bob endorses this crap simply by not more aggressively weeding it out any more than he sides with the "no drugs" or "no therapy" debaters simply be allowing posts espousing one view or the other.

Please hurry back.
