And YOU, who came here to stir up trouble.

Truth is you have no personal experience with alternative medicine, therefore
you are repeating the lies put forth by organized medicine.

Facts are alternative medicine keeps growing, the above seven liars, plus
yourself is the reason.

Furthermore you memory is slipping Jan Drew is a she.

Too bad you aren't in the marines and can bark orders.

My killfile works just fine.

I've wondered about that myself, but I think it's fair to guess that
there are many readers who never post. Also, other than Ilsa,
Probert, and that cretin "medtools," I can't think of anyone who does
frequent ID shifts.

Hey Jan!
That was another Troll-O-Gram! Get it?

TOG: online post designed to stimulate idiots like Jan to generate
meaningless self-serving responses, leading to lengthy exchanges among
similar fools. Occasionally, someone (Wright, for example) introduces an
element of rationality that slows down the process or diverts it toward
reason, reducing the entertainment value and the length of the thread. Ah
well, we can't expect all TOGs to be as effective as WAM"W", which is near
135 and still moving along... it's almost worth a dissertation!

Oh, I think there are reams of dissertations to be written about this
kind of thing. One could extract every one of Jan's postings from
Google and slowly trace her downward slide from minor irritability to
outright lunacy. It's sad, but it would make for fascinating reading.

And YOU, who came here to stir up trouble.

Prove it. You accuse people all the time of lying
just because they disagree with you, but you NEVER
back up your accusations with proof.

Do you need help seeing what PROOF looks like, Jan?

Here is an example:

Instead of responding to what you say, Jan is trying to discredit
you by making insinuations about who you are or what your
motives may be.

Soon, she may accuse you of being on the payroll of the
pharmaceutical companies, etc. That's the way Jan works.

That would be ANOTHER LIE from Mark Thorson. I have NEVER accused

anyone of

So do prove your claim Mark!!!!!

Any time alt. health is mentioned the personal trashing starts. Mostly
comes from paid shill Mark Probert.

Internet bully Mark Probert who is a paid shill and lives off his wife.

As for Mark, he is a paid shill and lives off his wife.

As long as Mark is here, the paid shill will call names when in fact
he is the one who is a bigot. Speaking of his own people.

Actually I do, both having on occasion used it (it didn't work,
unfortunately) and on occasion prescribed it. So much for your whine.
