<<Disclaimer: Verify this information before applying it to your situation.>> Amen to Karen. With 2700 members, the list must serve various needs, but they are not mutually exclusive. I happen to prefer the recipes, postings that quote sources and companies on their products' gf status, and experiences that can benefit others. Getting clear product labeling is uppermost in all of our minds, and it may very well be easier to accomplish if our organizations unite, but unless some individual(s) replace(s) talk with action, the issues will remain just a sharing of ideas on the list. The least we can do is respect each other's opinions and clearly label e-mail subjects so others can quickly delete what is not of their interest. Linda
