Marie, you made my day! Thanks for putting it all in perspective. A year or
so ago I
read a blurb that certain MDs had been singled out because they were not
writing enough
prescriptions for toxic drugs. It seems the DEA keeps records that show the
amounts of
controlled substances each doctor prescribes. Evidently, the wayward docs
were trying
some alternative treatments. I guess it won't be too long until we will be
locked up
for not buying our share of pesticides.
Regards,
Rex Harrill
