Medical Forum / Diseases and Disorders / Asthma / January 2005AOL bulletin
"For members using AOL over a dial-up connection, you will no longer be able to access Newsgroups." The above is being posted to all AOL members. It might be a good thing, considering the quality of postings to A.S.A. these last few months. It doesn't seem to be a support group anymore.

Inertia is an excuse - not a reason :o) > Inertia is an excuse - not a reason :o) I have to say none of the techie guys I know would have AOL, and I don't want it because of the problems it caused with networking. It is probably more a matter of not wanting to have to change emails for most people who don't change though, don't you think?

It's easy for them because they are elderly and 2000 miles away, and it just works. I wouldn't personally touch it with a shitty stick (indeed, I don't even use a Wintel machine), but it suits them just fine. Signature"The road to Paradise is through Intercourse."

In your case, it comprises many things, including asking questions in a condescending manner as well as fretting over such inconsequences as posting order, someone who abbreviates "citation" as "cite", and your betters, who are legion. > >> >> "For members using AOL over a dial-up connection, you will no longer > >> >> be [quoted text clipped - 20 lines] > order, someone who abbreviates "citation" as "cite", and your betters, who > are legion. You really don't know what it means. :) Never mind, honey.

ObAsthma: I always thought that the positive effect of showers on asthma was from the steam humidifying the inhaled air. By that logic hot showers should be better than cold ones. If the positive effect is from removing pollen, hot versus cold shouldn't make any difference. SignatureAlison Chaiken "From:" address above is valid.

Makes sense. But when the problem is overheating in hot and too humid temperatures (caused by 'extreme gardening' usually! :) ) then a cool shower, for me, is quick to ease my breathing. I think the cool airborne moisture is as much a part of it as anything. Polly |
