The information that I reference from the NMSS is normally based on a study, combined with their interpretation of it. You are right that chances are I'd still be able to AT LEAST get my hands on the study, even if it does not include their interpretation.

The difficulty at this point is that I did not necessarily retain any words from the article/study, just the link. So, if for instance I was talking about "transverse myelits", I just searched for my prior postings on that subject, and that gave me the links I was looking for. I can't recall what the articles/studies said exactly . . . just that it was important to my point.

Live and learn . . .

I used to just keep "notes" on everything I researched, pulling from several sources into a word document/summary on a topic. That didn't work for some forums because then I couldn't remember when I had used direct quotes for some of it, or if it was my own words . . .

I started keeping only links a few years ago, and didn't even keep the words to an article. Some of the forums preferred we didn't post the article, so the link idea seemed to work at the time . . .

I've adapted before, and I will again. Or maybe this is just a sign that it is time for me to find another interest.
