Clicked on his email address and nothing happened for me. Course, I do still have dial-up and maybe that's why.
Thank God, an unbiased opinion from someone who knows what they're talking about!

I THOUGHT you'd show up! You must have seen the "bulletin board butt" comment I made earlier!

yes, i wrote him last night or was it today, and got this great reply back about my LOW VISION so i couldn't read his pdf document.

i sure didn't know he was kids dr at STONY BROOK! how wonderful of him to write us all back.
editing: i showed his comments above about EYESIGHT since we have so many folks with vision problems; some i know personally here have LOST a great deal of eyesight to lyme.
that's why i posted this here for a "WAKE UP" moment; maybe that's what is wrong with my vision and to get to eye specialist to check it out.
