Roberta, I'm not sure why you feel it necessary to defend yourself here.
This list is populated with malcontents, misfits and MS-haters (as well
as some really smart people) and, in general, it's a waste of time
trying to defend yourself.  Just state your opinion and then move on.

I doubt you'll get any takers for your article, because I haven't seen
any MS-haters that have any reasoned opinions to express.  They mostly
want to spew vitriol, and this list gives them that outlet because it's
unmoderated.
