    Great that you visited Alem, @dave30th :thumbup:

    Powerful, hard hitting piece that only the heartless could not be affected by.

    Thank you and thank you once again to Alem, one of the most selfless and brave people on this planet. :hug:

    I did as instructed, kind sir, and Ben wanted to know whether we had anything in mind other than sharing on social media. He said that they were pretty busy at the moment, and would find it difficult to fit it in. I mentioned that JenB suggested it, but he was uncertain as to who that was.

    Err, pass then. I was aware that you probably weren't following this thread which is why I commented and tagged you. Perhaps @JenB could provide a pointer then?

    I've been told that 'Jennifer Brea' posted on FaceBook at about 1700 UK time that she had crashed. Can anyone confirm?

    edit she posted yesterday.

    Yes, but the time that I had read it and caught up, there wouldn't have been any time to create an official poster. I could try and knock one off tonight, put it up here for anyone who is going to run off, and send it as a suggestion, but what sort of content would it need to have?

    Happy Birthday Alem Matthees!

    Thank you for making sure that PACE had to release enough of its data for you and others to prove that their claims of success with CBT and GET were false.

    But that sentence is too convoluted. I need a tabloid writer.

    What sort of image?

    Longer but less convoluted?

    "Huge thanks for getting enough PACE data released, so the false claims for CBT and GET could be exposed. There has been tremendous progress since and more is sure to follow – but it would not be happening if not for you."

    Edit, V2:

    Nice one Allele. I've got photoshop applications, and so could tidy it up and make it suitably high-res for printing out at A4 size (it's not too bad actually as it is for size), but where did you get the image? Is it copyright? Do we need to worry about that? What if it hits the news headlines?

    There would be no copyright issue for a use like this. It is not a commercial application, no one is selling anything or making any money.

    In that case, why not go ahead with Allele's poster? I've printed it out and it's certainly good enough quality (well, apart from the fact that my printer ran out of black ink?). I'll pass it on to Ben in case he is able to add it to their posters, and I'll pass it on to a couple of folk who are going up to the London demo from here.

    Copyright pertains regardless of whether anyone makes money off it, doesn't it?
