If you point your browser to:

   http://home.microsoft.com/reading/archives/features-6-23.asp

you will find an article about Medicine and the Internet.  The first three
paragraphs discuss Celiac Disease in general, my son's experience getting
diagnosed, and the founding of our discussion group.

As is often the case with reporters, they got a few details wrong.   The
article should have featured the tremendous efforts of Mike Jones and Jim
Lyles, my co-Listowners, who are the real backbone and energy of this List.  We
have over 150 physicians, but they usually subscribe to CEL-PRO, not to the
CELIAC discussion group itself.   And who knows why McDonalds decided to change
their hash browns!

Notwithstanding its blemishes, this article could generate alot of awareness on
Celiac.  The reporter told me that this section of their web site generally
gets 500,000 hits per day, and the article will run for 7 days as their
feature article.  Tell your friends!
