    My father didn't understand me. And now that's OK.

    My mother did understand me. And now that's OK.

    Current Mood: okay

    Heh
    SARS is probably a false alarm. My bad. Alertness was good, but paying attention to the data is key.

    A diagnostic criterion issue. Yeah, it's a cold virus, and some people are taking it hard, but it isn't all that. If a person's symptoms match a particular grid, then it "becomes" SARS, even though other people who are exposed to that virus don't get very sick. In this way, it is sort of like HIV and AIDS. Different viruses affect different people in different ways.

    If the scientific community is careful about this, they might figure out ways to help treat viral pneumonia regardless of which cold virus causes it. My personal suggestion, from personal experience, is that sodium intake makes respiratory problems worse, in some people.

    Current Mood: creative

    Self & Community
    Sometimes we need to go away and figure things out for ourselves. Other times we need help from the community.

    Yes, I'm full of platitutes now. I'm a friggin' platitude factory. Watch me spit!

    Current Mood: silly

    Well, I talked with a lot of people, and calmed down a bunch, and I think I'll be able to sleep well tonight.

    I'll see y'all in the morning :-)

    Current Mood: sleepy
