Dear Myron, I wonder if you could expand upon this comment in your previous
e-mail....

Re:  I am just wondering if the needs of conservation
are met if everyone just starts throwing in their mundane or not so mundane
health issues for quick  commentary.  It seems a distraction from the
necessary course.

What course would that be?
