thanks! I'm glad it's almost over.

It seemed there were a couple times when couple donations of $2000 or $3000 occurred more or less at the same time. The large donations always kind of shock me. But of course it wouldn't work without all the smaller donations of whatever size.

Hm, I don't remember seeing that at the time. In any event, the results paper didn't find any psychological parameters, but apparently Katz doesn't believe their own findings, I guess. Or doesn't find them convincing enough to not put his name on COFFI's paper.

I didn't see that article. Do you remember where it was or have a link for it? I'd be curious to read it. Katz is at Northwestern and it was a study of Northwestern students. Lenny is at DePaul University. Both are in Chicago. Katz has generally held the views expressed by COFFI, as far as I...

I'm aware of 2 $5000 donations, which stunned me. Was there a third one of those and also a $4000 one that I'm not remembering? I haven't checked back. Maybe I'm losing my memory??

COFFI was established by all the usual suspects several years ago to promote their bogus ideas.

They do this anyone. I haven't read the paper so not sure of the status of the definition of "neo-liberal." But well-reasoned critiques of social structures that impose disproportionate burdens on the unwell and disadvantaged are important, no matter how others react to them. What does NOT...

When Reuters "reporter" Kate Kelland, in her role as a flack for the SMC, was interviewing me for her screed, she asked about Paul's tweet that he wished for Professor Sharpe's "professional demise." I said I completely disagreed that that was "harassment" or "threatening" in any way. It clearly...

yes I think I ranted on for over an hour...It was supposed to be 40 minutes.

They're not all British journals.

this was Chalder, not Crawley. I have also confused the two at times.

Thanks for figuring out a fix! I get very frustrated too. Sometimes I hear from people who want to send me funds directly through PayPal and I explain I simply can't take money personally. It opens me up to all sorts of criticisms and charges. However, I'm not completely opposed to someone...

Trish, did you ever get the trial documents you asked for a while ago?

I'm not really sure. Each time I think it's behind, and then it works out. There will be a burst the last week, I expect. I will continue for six months (Jan-June next year) regardless of the outcome, since those who are funding me are funding me for that period and I will certainly honor that...

why is this referring to CFS/ME and CFS throughout? Seems a good sign that they are not up on current thinking.

Thanks!

About the first point--I didn't take that to mean it was part of Garner's tweet but rather @FMM1's interpretation of the implied message--in other words, it was commentary. It wasn't intended to be read, I don't think, as being what he said literally. However, I agree that could have been made...

yes, that's what it is. nothing you clicked or didn't click.
