c/o (Re: on second thoughts - to Claire)

[Guest guest]

:

Are you in the USA? I had always thought that was a typical

British name. Don't know why.

Well, before this affair turns into ashes (ashes or powder are the

ultimate destiny of everything, don't you agree?), I want to say this

much:

While I may not agree with all the points in your message (though I

think you are in general right), I am glad that my message prompted

you to speak out. In other words, it was useful in that now you have

learned a few more facts about you. If I hadnot posted it (and to

tell you the truth, I hesitated a lot before posting it), perhaps you

wouldn't have told us.

By the way, when were you born? I was born on May 5th, but that was a

very long time ago.

I will talk to you and the others later on about a's thumb-

sucking.

Thank you for your observations.

not mean them to be, but I reread my post and could see how it could

be taken the wrong way.

in morning tea items. I was not the only one not eating, mind you,

but given my previous attitude to eat everything in sight, this was

commented on. I had to explain the change. Luckily I had an

explanation that kept things under control because I had been to a

specialist who had sorted me out. I lost a fair amount of weight.

Almost every day there was someone checking what I was eating during

the day making some comment on the supposed need for me to

avoid 'good' food. They thought I had an eating disorder.

Fortunately I had the support of a few close colleagues.

Honest and interested questions are one thing, but hard lined

interrogation is another.
