Idea

[Pelta]

I'm leaving for Israel soon G-dwilling, so I thought I'd check up on the board again, despite myself and my old post saying I wouldn't.

I'll share my experience with HLA: done. I didn't enjoy it. I don't know how much HLA helped versus rebellious staff members who may have been more helpful. I can't tell you how much HLA twisted my brain vs. cleared it. I think it was a confusing mix of all of these things.

I can tell you one thing I learned at HLA though: there are definately things in the System worth searching out and fighting for.

If you think fighting HLA is your battle and that that's the most noble crusade you can go on, I really don't care. But don't take it to a tiny message board. Take it to lawyers. Take it to medical specialists. Compose a case. Maybe start an organization for the publicizing. Make a documentary. OR SOMETHING! If you want to do this thing, do it all the way.

Otherwise--and this is probably the better way to go--find a battle with more worth to pursue with your life.

I'm neither your ally nor your opponent, Bruce; I think you realize that. I have another battle I'm beset with. But it seems to me such a waste that to utilize your intelligence on a battle such as this one. You've also demonstrated an almost religious stubborness with this issue, so I'm sure I can't dissuade you from it. But there are much more efficient ways to fight than from here and focusing your efforts on getting big psychological/law/medical names to support you openly would probably be more efficient. I realize that you have outside sources to back you up, but a board of anonymous cursing teens and a medical expert shouldn't really convince anybody.

Again I hear what youre saying. All I was stating my support for was the comment which stated there are many other things going on in this fight. Namley many of the things you are suggesting.
