Thanks for this reply, TC.  I appreciate it.

Since you don't know me, I'd like to say categorically: *Everything*
I've learned is open to reconsideration and revision. If I've posted as
though I think I know it all then that is only because something is
lost in this imperfect medium. I learn every minute that I have the
strength to.

You'll see that I don't belong to any one school of nutrition and take
an eclectic approach. The fact that I post anonymously and refer people
to many sites should bespeak the fact that I have no personal economic
interest in any of those sites.

I always much prefer to learn than to teach, but I have to respect
people I learn from and believe that they have others' best interest at
heart.  The genuine sharing knowledge is an act of love of the highest
order. It is the communion and commingling of Minds. It is an act of
tremendous intimacy and should be carried out with the appropriate
reverence and awe.

If someone has acted like a number of the posters in this group have I
am not likely to take anything they write seriously or permit them
entry into my consciousness because I know they have not learned in
love and are not disseminating knowledge in love. Any attempts to teach
on their part are acts of aggression, not love. They're on some kind of
an ego trip and/or have vested interests.  I don't learn from people
like that, just as I don't make love to people I find morally
repugnant.  They've lost all credibility with me and that is a shame.
