As long as it’s not a pea vine, it’s all good.

We could use the same code but run a separate list. <br/><br/>As for violations of the code, I agree, they should be blatant. Perhaps we should have a panel that rotates every few months to keep it fresh. I'd suggest every one who signs up be part with an option for anyone who doesn't want to be part to opt out. This way it's a community board and not an exclusive board. Just a suggestion.<br/><br/>Gwenn I do think we need to separate out patient-oriented blogs from MD-oriented blogs.

Should I begin to post again, I like the idea of having others that visit, know I stand behind what you all are doing. I guess I'd fall under patient, as I'm no longer in the field; but, if I did post on anything in the past, they are actual events that occurred, albeit with provisions to protect the innocent and adhere to HIPPA.

We can be one lump group, or a kind of sub-section. I'm not sure which would work best, but would like to hear opinions about the matter.<br/><br/>Another thought: regardless of whether this is one big group or one with a sub-section of patients, would patients perhaps require a slightly altered logo, so as not to give the impression that we're in any way medical professionals? I'd prefer not to potentially mislead folks. I’m good either/or on the patient perspective section. We can be one lump group, or a kind of sub-section.
