While I doubt this defense will ever be reciprocated-sorry!<img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0"> I have a problem with this thread also-I know that wasn't the originator's intent but it turned out that way.
I don't think Amy should change her views and being an outspoken, strong willed person with strong values is a good thing, not a bad thing that should be changed. (I'm sure Molly Brown wasn't everybody's favorite woman on the Titanic, but she's the only passenger we remember!) I do have a big problem with <i>the way </i>Amy articulates her views-but not the views in themselves. I really wish she'd change that specifically, b/c she's hurt several people and gotten some people really down about the feel around the site lately-but that's up to her.
That being said, it is not right to have a thread that single's out one particular person. That doesn't help anybody or solve anything-and only increases hurt feelings and tension. Everyone involved in the recent debates already made their points in the original threads.
That's my 2 cents.

Just wanted to add-my above comments in no way are intended to minimize people that were really hurt or offended by recent things. (At least to me), you have every right to be hurt, I just have a problem with this rehashing thread.

The thread isn't the problem. It's people hijacking it. There are frequently threads checking on people who haven't been around for a while or that someone has a question for it. Amy is no different from anyone else that someone might be checking on.

Maybe that's just me, but I think this thread is no way Amy's fault nor does it reflect poorly on amy in any way. Don't blame her for the way others chose to respond to her -- no matter what she may or may not do, she does not control them, they still have the capacity to chose their responses.

Just making sure I wasn't being confusing..
I was just defending Amy! I don't think its right to continue bashing her after the arugment's over and everyone had their say. I wasn't saying that comments on this thread were her fault.

Amy,



I was reading some old posts and I noticed that your old comments are gone and all there is is a period. I hope something weird as happened. Please don't tell me that the recent stuff has driven you to leaving the site.



I have learned so much from you and really appreciate your knowledge of science and meds.



Hopefully I'll see a reassurance from you soon!</end quote></div>

What part of this was an open invitation to attack Amy? People, people, people, we are all family, knock it off children! Do I have to pull this car over?!!!
