I guess we should take down all the posts that are more than a year old. I thought that we would leave them up so that people could learn from the thousands of discussions that have previously taken place on these boards. But in the last 30 days the message board search engine has been used only 12 times. The admin function that a few of us have allows you to see what topics are hot, who is visiting, posting, even the invisibles, and much more. The search engine is there for a reason. Long time posters, who have a great deal of knowledge, (and you can see this from the number of posts they make), give generously of their time in the evenings to answer as many questions as possible. But I guarantee you that after several years of answering the same PEG question or whatever, even those with the kind of dedication as Gary shows, tire of repeating themselves. Some of our best clinical and hard information posters over the years have moved on, KCDC, Mark, and many others who were regular posters here. OCF is greatly in debt to those who come to share their information. But before we send them all into burnout, take a minute or two and read some of the findings in the search engine here or the search engine on the main site (they do not over lap their coverage). Your answer may be only a mouse click away. If you can
