<<Disclaimer: Verify this information before applying it to your situation.>> I was the one who wrote the letter about "The Problem With The Celiac List." Unfortunately, no one wrote to me even though my screen name was at the bottom of my letter which was summarized by someone else. I could have written that, "The problem with IBM is that it is commposed of different types of people," or that, "The problem with Europe, Asia, South America, or Planet Earth is that they are composed of different types of people." Unfortunately, we're not all identical clones, that's why we have so many problems. I guess people also took offense at my statement that those willing and able to change the status quo would be in the minority. Again, don't only a moinority of people vote. Could the makeup of the celiac list be different than the makeup of the general population? Furthermore, don't those who try to change the status quo receive death threats--let alone nasty letters. I hope we can acknowledge our luck if one famous person or one capable doctor takes up our cause. We must not devalue the individual because we have 27000 members. History contains more examples of individuals changing society than of the masses changing society. Lastly, we wont have many intellectual discussions if we attack each other--we should attack, or politely disprove statements. I'm always happy to learn if one of my statements is incorrect.
