If you are diabetic and new to this group, check out real support

Yes, I've heard they've been booted, more than once, using nyms, some of
them.

Speaking for myself, I have never posted on either the ADA or the
dLife board. My guess is that if both you and I did, you'd be the
first to get booted.

In Susan speak "I've heard" is the preamble of a following utter lie.

*If* it were true, if only for one person and one forum, she would
present it as a fact.

By stating she's "heard", she's affirming that the back channel I
was criticized for mentioning earlier is actually alive and well.

I have never belonged to nor posted to any forum. The few blogs I
posted to, and found them useless, had nothing to do with health
or diabetes. There's only so much information available about
diabetes and any amazing new discovery will promptly find its way
everywhere that diabetes is discussed, so it will be here quickly
enough.

And besides, I much prefer the freedom to let people who are acting
like idiots know just what I think of them. Recently Susan has been
joining that club more than not.
