Guest guest Posted June 1, 2006 Report Share Posted June 1, 2006 Lenny, I just wanted to say that we all have bad days and we all send emails over the list which were meant to be private. Bob is a great father and advocate. I can only hope to have 1 percent of the knowledge of mercury and vaccines that he has. If Bob isn't posting anymore on this list- the list has lost a great contributor. But, if he needs a little time off, we understand. This whole " autism thing " can be a bit stressful Sincerely, Heeren Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 2, 2006 Report Share Posted June 2, 2006 As other friends on this list have said, we have all “been there”; not only regarding mistaken e-mails, but also regarding irritations and exasperations that after consult with friends would have been put into perspective. That is what would have happened in this private e-mail; I know, because Bobbie has helped me put things into perspective. That’s one of the things we in the community rely on; friends to share thoughts with, to put feelings into perspective, as we each face the waves of challenges we meet head on, every day. Bob is one of us, a leader among us, our friend; now, and for the duration. Thanks to all our friends on this list for their outreach to him.

Guest guest Posted June 2, 2006 Report Share Posted June 2, 2006 What are you talking about????? He is completely is in line with the rest of the preservative republicans. Smother us to keep us quiet. http://www.nomercury.org/media/IMUS_03_10_05.wma Listen if you dare. I think he's a wimp drug company apologist. He has publicly made a statement that he doesn't want to see drug companies or the federal government have to pay for their thimerosal mistake. He also claimed to have killed the Eli Lilly Rider before it got passed.

Guest guest Posted June 2, 2006 Report Share Posted June 2, 2006 , I know what charities do and what they can't do. Just a friendly reminder to those of us urgently in need of compensation to help support our mercury poisoned children: Japanese Government Found Partly to Blame for Minamata Disease Oct. 15, 2004 (Bloomberg) -- Japan's Supreme Court said the government shares responsibility for the spread of Minamata mercury-poisoning disease in the 1950s and 1960s, closing years of litigation in the environmental contamination case. It was the first Supreme Court judgment on the government's responsibility in the 48-year history of the disease. Judge Hiroharu Kitagawa upheld a 2001 high court ruling that the central government and a local government must compensate victims, along with chemical maker Chisso Corp. The court ordered the governments to pay a total of 71.5 million yen ($652,900) to 37 of 45 plaintiffs, said Kenichi Yokota, an official of a support group for the plaintiffs. ``This is a very big ruling for us,'' said Yokota, who listened to the ruling in the courtroom and spoke to Bloomberg by telephone. ``The compensation amount is too low, but it was good that the Supreme Court upheld the high court's ruling.'' The disease killed hundreds of people, disabled thousands and produced birth defects in the city of Minamata, Kumamoto prefecture, on Kyushu Island. The poisoning was caused by seafood contaminated with organic mercury that Chisso dumped into the local bay. Chisso, founded in Minamata in 1908, was using methyl mercury to make acetaldehyde, a material for polyvinyl chloride. Minamata disease was detected in 1953. The company discharged untreated factory waste into Minamata Bay until 1968, when the government recognized the emissions as the cause of the disease. Last Minamata Case The Kumamoto government took steps to catch poisoned fish and purify water in Minamata Bay until 1997, when it declared the water quality to be normal. The lawsuit was the last Minamata case remaining after others were withdrawn following a 1995 government-proposed settlement. It was originally filed in the Osaka District Court in 1982. The district court in 1994 ordered Chisso to pay compensation to some plaintiffs, while ruling the governments not responsible. That ruling was overturned in 2001 by the Osaka High Court, which said the central and local governments also were liable. The High Court ordered the governments and the company to pay a total of 320 million yen to plaintiffs. The governments and the plaintiffs appealed to the Supreme Court, with the plaintiffs claiming, among other things, that the governments should have banned consumption of local fish and clams. The high court ruled the governments had failed to implement clean water safeguards to prevent the poisoning Re: Re: Bob Krakow> > > > > > > > > > > > Lenny,> > > > > > > > I just wanted to say that we all have bad days and we all > send> > > emails over> > > > the list which were meant to be private.

Guest guest Posted June 2, 2006 Report Share Posted June 2, 2006 Say what you will. He is at least talking about this. Tough to do in an institution which essentially passed government mandates to mercury poison all of this nation's children. They want to hear that about as much as the CDC/AAP and others.

Guest guest Posted June 2, 2006 Report Share Posted June 2, 2006 We have spent so much time on this issue, I can't even remember what all the fuss is even about. I better go take my fish oils!!! Regardless of the issue, we need Bob back because he has expertise no one else has and his posts are truly informative, insightful and very, very helpful. BTW- I wrote the book and am teaching the seminar in how to send inappropriate e-mails to the wrong parties. I may be the world's expert.

Guest guest Posted June 2, 2006 Report Share Posted June 2, 2006 When I heard him at the April DAN my overriding impression was that he was CONFLICTED. He was careful in what he said and gave the impression he was definitely being Gagey. My 02 on the matter.
