Guest guest Posted January 20, 2005 Report Share Posted January 20, 2005 That is great news and a great start. I hope the reporter/s are as sincere as the author of the email believes them to be.

Just venting. --- blessingsx10@... wrote: > :Gang: > > > > > > > > I just talked to the producer of the autism > series, Dorie > > Klissas. > > > > > > > > She has been absolutely inundated with emails > from parents > > worried > > > > she will do another hatchet-job of the causes > of autism (nice > > work, > > > > > > > Here is what she assured me of, and I believe > her: > > > > > > > > In the segment on causes and cures, at least 3 > people will > > appear > > > on > > > > camera: > > > > > > > > - Boyd Haley (yeah!!) > > > > - Dr. Bock (yeah!!!) > > > > - A mother whose child has recovered through > chelation and who > > says > > > > unequivocally that mercury was the cause > (triple yeah!!!) > > > > > > > > All of these interviews have taken place > already.
