History of Diabetes - The Color Blue

A link to this study was posted on the ADA forum today by a
poster named Molly. I found it absolutely fascinating. Guy,
Tim and some others here may find echoes of their own past
here.

I thank you for this link The answer is a "cure" not treatment.

I feel strongly that more research should be funded. But the funds
will not help unless we educate many more researchers. We waste
so much talent.

I would like to live to see a Polio type solution. That will not
come from drug companies or clinical people

Polio was a scourge I visit people in iron lungs and helped carry
other students in their wheel chair up three flight of stairs to
class. I remember that very well.

We can dream.

A good read Alan. I wouldn't be surprised if the good Doctor treated
some of my family members at Joslin. There used to be a family joke
that they should name a wing after us. I remember the urine test that
my father used. It was called Clinitest I think, and IIRC blue meant
good.

Thanks Alan. Things seem pretty much the same. I can't quite figure
out what the deal is with Andrea2, and Madison, and somebody else.
They turned out to be frauds? Who uncovered the subterfuge?

Hey Will,

How goes the battle? Hope things are well for you.

Considering the Red Sox, the Patriots, and until last week, Boston
College, I have been feeling reasonably satisfied.

Although the brighter ones among us (not including me)
suspected it for a long time the following were all the same
person: Madison, Andrea, Andrea2, AmberJean and Anon. There
were a couple of others names which escape me. We suspect
the real Anon is a sad, sick, grubby pathetic middle-aged
male but even that is not certain. Despite that apt
description it's not me:-)

Start here, where "Andrea2" confessed all; or at least some
of it: http://tinyurl.com/28g68y

Then skip to a little later and you'll come across a short
attempt from TerryR, but Ozgirl picked that one instantly:
http://tinyurl.com/28nljw

Now he/she is back again as Anon but claiming also to be
here in a couple of other personas. Sadly that is clouding
the air with some suspicion of some posters who are probably
genuine.

Anon needs competent professional help.


Cheers, Alan, T2, Australia.

No Cheri, I never got it it. Can you re-send? If Phil worked on it for
a week, I am sure it is a classic!

Thanks Jan, nice to see you too! I have a different version of Agent
now, and they changed quite a few things. Being the type who tries to
"figure it out" as opposed to reading a help file, I am amazed I am
even this far along.

Sure, when he gets home tonight, I'll have him rewrite it, and I'll
