Many of the “new” drugs are just minor chemical modifications of old drugs that are loosing their patent protection. Most are no more effective than the older drug or the generic version. Virtually all of them are much more expensive and require higher pa WBR LeoP

Kids…if I can remember being one that long ago… are curious beings. Even in the most ‘perfect’ home, most parents enjoy and nurture the natural curiosity of their children. The reality and possibility is that any child, curious about the awful drug WBR LeoP

Should have his licence revoked; if this man is not happy with dispensing legal drugs because of his beliefs perhaps he should try other employment, or does his income come before his beliefs? WBR LeoP

Yeah, let me put in my two cents to echo Shadocat — since I try to limit my comments to once per day, I cover all the topics in that single post. Which means I’d have no earthly idea which “thread” to plunk it under. For me, the strength of this blog, as indeed the strength of Alison’s art, is the complexity and the refusal to boil it down. I hear that’s not how some folks like to deal with things, and I respect that, but I’d rather have the option to continue hearing it all. Just how I live my life.

Katie-

Thanks for the reply;I also have one more suggestion, if I may (gulp!)

When I’ve been on other message board, some have a feature where one can choose to see threaded (subject directed) or non-threaded (the whole ball of wax) comments. If this could be done, maybe we could “have our cake and eat it too?” (I know, like you don’t already have enough to do…)

To Maggie and Silvio–Thank you for the lovely compliments, but as far as goddessness(?) is concerned, I think both of you outrank me (What would be above a goddess? Mega-goddess?
How about four star goddess?)

Judybusy-Thank you for the thank you–you would be suprised how many people, many of them professionals, do not know about this change in social security and it’s been in place for at least twenty years. When my ex-husband died suddenly,grief counselors at the hospital, school counselors, and even the funeral director told my 17 year old daughter she could receive assistance checks as long as she was a full-time college student. I hoped that perhaps the law had changed again (remembering my young brother-in-law’s experience), but when I checked with the SSA, I found nothing had changed. Minor children of the deceased only receive support until their 18th birthday. Then the checks stop, no matter where they are in their schooling. The government has not been eager to share this bit of info with the general public, for obvious reasons.

sksdurham, I don’t see why you think I think you’re a Republican. Au contraire, mon frere, I think you’re a liberal.
