Oh, and it's way past time that E.C.T. , Electroshock 'Therapy' be

eliminated as a viable 'treatment' for mental illness. BRAIN DAMAGE

IS NOT THERAPY.

Do I have to say it outloud???? Does this have to be explained to

someone???

Ha! Very funny

Yeah, I read that about the Iraqi's. Pretty disgusting. I am very saddened

to hear that but always knew that the truth of the conflict would come out

eventually. I cannot say that the death of one single Iraqi civilian

can help anything but create more turmoil and pain.

Drug, Paxil, GSK are at it again like nothing ever

happened
