Jan has made her position clear.  She doesn't pretend to be impartial, and I
know
exactly why she is here.  I respectfully disagree with her, but I like her and
would feel
lucky to have her as a patient.

Hi Jan,

Got a new hard drive installed...and haven't got around to resetting my
blocked senders list. I find it funny you have such respect for someone
because they will not engage in name calling or other devise behavior, yet
now that I have you unblocked, I see that even though I have not engaged you
in conversation for months, have not made any comments about you for an
equally long time, YOU are still making comments about my lack of integrity
and big ego. I find that a bit ironic, and leaves me wondering why anyone
would write they like you or they would feel lucky to have you as a patient.
I don't like people that are dishonest in professing respect for a given
mindset or behavior, and then engage in activities that are the polar
opposite.

I'm turning you off again now...and hoping this hard drive has a long life
and will keep me from reading your words ever again.

She's been asked countless times.  Her approach seems to be "if it makes
sense to me, that's good enough".

But then what makes sense to her seldom does to anyone else.

That is quite a mess.

Maybe you just need to change some setting on your browser.

I don't know what the G2/0.2 User Agent is, but maybe that is your
problem.  Give a try to some ordinary browser such as Mozilla or
Foxfire.  Even Outlook Express might be better.

Maybe you are not even using a GUI.  That's okay, you should be able to
find some sensible text-only browser that automatically puts quotes in
replies.  Maybe slm or lynx.

Drop your ego and do it to efficiently propagate your beliefs about
mercury amalgam fillings.

I don't know what the G2/0.2 User Agent is, but maybe that is your
problem

I dont have  problem and never heard of G2/0.2Agent.

I am posting through google, since aol mesed up their reader page.

What I posted is clear.

No doubt about who said what.

Stop trying to change the subject, drop YOUR ego and see how a
gentleman dentist is honest,  polite and fair.

Jan has made her position clear. She doesn't pretend to be impartial, and I
know
exactly why she is here. I respectfully disagree with her, but I like her and
would feel
lucky to have her as a patient.

WHAT are you talking about?  I don't know what you think I did.  Please
tell me exactly what you think I did.

Gosh, I was just trying to make a helpful suggestion about your posting
style.  You seem to have some kind of mental block about it.

Okay, I think I get it.  The pro-amalgam elements are paying you to make
the anti-amalgam side look crazy.  Am I right?

Matt,

An astute observation. The reality is that amalgam is in
use becasue the public accepts it and anti-amalgamists
have to talk a lot because the public is incredibley dense
on the issue. Talk enough and people will say you are
crazy. Stop talking and they will retain their original
pre-concieved, biased and uneducated views ;).If the US had wised up
like the Europeans this topic wouldn't even have been discussed on SMD.

This means the public does not listen to Clinton, they listen to the
medical establishment not the internet scarum establishment!

I am not referring to general anti-amalgam talk.  I am referring to
crazy talk by a Usenet-prominent anti-amalgamist.

No, you are dead wrong. I don't need to be paid and wouldn't accept money from
who you suggest as it doesn't happen.

I post because I was poisoned and nearly died. I have a message, I have helped
others and will continue.

Also, it was YOU who changed the post, and the title.

Why are you here?

Oh.

Well, I encourage you to help people reach the truth about amalgam
fillings, whatever that might be.  I find that your posting software
and/or posting style are hindering you.

> Also, it was YOU who changed the post, and the title.

I don't know what you are talking about.  I changed no title.  I don't
know what you mean that I "changed the post".

We all have to be somewhere.

On the contrary. See below.

Excuse me if I don't believe that, it is quite simple. You snipeed the last
word of the title. You also speard out the words, as all can see.

Uh huh. Now just answer the question, please.
