I came to this late, Cherie and Koala. I went back and read Catch's thread and am now up to speed. I do agree that we should not make a formal list of symptoms here for the perusal of lurkers and wannabes, but I think you might be overreacting to this particular thread.
We will always want to talk to each other and compare notes, so to speak, and we don't want to discourage that. It's too much a part of the support we give each other here.
This forum has a pretty nice "free speech" policy, as long as it does not offend, and we don't want to become too restrictive, as other forums, where we have run screaming from, have become.
So lets cool it a little OK..
