  Dear Listmembers, This may seem a little crazy, but just thought I'd pass
this on.  Last week, since it was cool here, I put on my jeans with a
regular waistband.  I'd been wearing pants and shorts with elastic waists
all summer.  Well, it wasn't long, as I was sitting doing paperwork, that
my stomach got extremely sick and I had a diahhrea attack.  After I decided
that may have been the problem, I changed to elastic waist pants and felt
okay again.  Now I'm on a quest for elastic waist jeans!  Karen from
