They finally did it!!

[bow]

They issued an apology for all the suffering they've caused everyone over the past umpteen decades,

for worming their way out of the truth,
for steering everyone in the wrong direction,

all the pain they've caused Dr Jones
(they've decided to send their dues $ from the past four decades

as well as monetary profits they have made from any Lyme business to help retire his debt)

They congratulated the CT atty general on a job well done,

said they learned alot from everyone's well-prepared testimonies,

that their guidelines were not to be followed anymore,

and that they would be stepping out of the way for doctors and patients to do what they think is best,

and to show that they are sincere about their apology, they are currently drafting up a list of all the places in the world where Lyme really is -

ie, all countries to be listed, with the word "is" to be capitalized, like

Lyme really IS in Antarctica....Lyme IS in Madagascar, Lyme IS in...

and after they get done with the country list, they will start on states and territories,

then counties and cities and unincorporated regions

and then open space districts and open lands
(Lyme IS in this field, and as small as that space IS, Lyme IS there)

in fact, they all voted on a new use for their organization initials -

since they are so well utilizing the I and the S, they decided they didn't want to leave out the D and the A,

so their new motto will be:

If DA truth be told, Lyme IS everywhere! Sorry!

we're just so happy to hear that the doctor finally IS in -

[woohoo]

Keeb, I even heard that after all the geographical naming of places where Lyme IS,

they're going to then start naming the vegetation where the ticks and their Lyme are showing up, and that IS including April flowers -

This has to be the biggest joke. There is absolutely no way this news would have made it to Lymenet before it made it to me. Not only that, it's outrageous, the IDSA will "never" fulfill all of those factors. They may one day be forced to recognize scientific facts over their fiction, just like other combative competing scientific theories, but that's the best outcome.

April Fools, right? I bet I'm right.
