I don't have an issue with John, I love him - he's my As kicking brother.

It's a question of communication. For all of us. I'm very aware of this from when I practiced clinical medicine. I can't say I'm without sin, but I think we all must be cognizant that what we post here has a weight of authority to say, the newly diagnosed "lurker".

All it takes to communicate fairly is some qualification in the language, "this is what's best for me", "this is what was recommended by Professor Alan Ebringer", rather than "this is how it is, period."

Like I say - the worst offenders, in my experience, are MDs and I used to give medical students and house officers the same little lecture.
