Paul falls of stool with laughter. I cannot think of anybody who knows
me who would describe me as having an "ay bin" attitude. I have spent
most of my life dissing such people whom I know with it. Hope the hell
I haven't caught it.

Wooo hold on here. Are you saying that this is not a place to ask
questions? Surely questions are research. Are you saying only speak
here if you agree wholeheartedly with what I think?
and before you reply just take a minute and look at what I wrote there. I

do not dispute any

of the facts of your experience or your personal evidence. Have I ever
said vaccination will not be an option in the future? I asked about
the milk issue to which I was quickly given a link to suggest I might
be wrong. When I went there I couldn't find milk mentioned, only meat
which I did know about.

I am the man who constantly quotes, "The man that makes no mistakes
doesn't make anything.

Absolutely not I have tried hard, all my life, to avoid telling people
how to think.
Something perhaps, on reading your mail I would surmise, you have never

given a thought to?

I don't think I have ever said, "You are wrong". Look closely and you
will see I have questioned what people say and all I hope do to from
that is for the author to question what they have said also.
j> Come on
j> Paul, show us your true colours, have a real good pop at me, now,

j> Frances

Turn? Do you think I am sitting here with a rotational hit list?
Who needs to get out more? ;-)

Cheerio, Paul
