As they say in the South: [quote]It's always the hit dog that hollars[/quote] I have no hate issue with any direct marketing business, I do have an issue with you using the OCF forum to tout one. As DavidCPA pointed out in another context, all of our posts are just our opinions. My opinion of you could not be lower after your post. That's life. If you want to shill for something, then expect pushback. Believe it, if you continue to try and sell stuff here, expect me shining the light on your darkness.

I have a warped sense of humor and I can only think of you shining the flashlight into my bedroom

I know......odd and warped, but it made me laugh at myself for what I read and thought. LOL

Jim,
You should check with Moffit regarding their evidenced-based Integrative Medicine Program which includes acupuncture, nutritional counseling, exercise assessment, massage therapy, yoga, and tai chi, a number of research studies also associated with the program including trials on soy, lycopene, SAMe, and green tea.

I doubt you will get very far into this without hearing about Dr. David Servan-Schreiber and his book 'Anticancer - a new way of life'.

The book doesn't hawk anyone's products or foods, but it does suggest what to stay away from and what to look for and it supports those finding with facts, studies, know anticancer chemicals in the food recommendations and their precise chemical compound diagrams.

MD Anderson has a presentation by Dr. Servan-Schreiber at
http://www3.mdanderson.org/streams/MDACCFlvPlayer2.html?xml=publicEd%2Fconfig%2FAnti-Cancer_cfg

Also be sure to first discuss any supplements you want to take with your doctors at Moffit.

Hummmm Patty, LOL That doesn't sound too good, With my mind always thinking, it sounded like something other than what you actually meant. You have me laughing which I need for my ride to HBO in Pittsburgh.

Once again you "old Frack" I am not selling or pushing products on anybody! I am in the car business.....trust me I know what pushing and selling is! I am sure you have even a lower opinion of me now being that I am in the car business! lol, I have never seen someone get so hostile and attact somebody over using a product or talking about a company in my entire life! Get over it trust me you will feel better or let me know your address and I will send you a some midol and a couple tampons!
As far as the OCF goes I am a contributing member and I am not talking about just writing posts. I just sent sent in $50 last month again and if I was out of line like you continue to bash me for I am sure Brian would have told me. You if you havent noticed are the ONLY person having a hissy fit over this and honestly look pretty darn stupid!
EzJim...Every product I have, use and take is made and produced by them and is all natural. I have consulted with both my ENT and RO on taking supplements. All I am taking is a immunity and a multi vitamin.
1 more note for you CHARM and then I am finished with yo and this rediculous, childish arguement that you have started...When I got on here and talked about a different type of flouride, talked about drinking VHC, talked about using Caphasol.......Where were you ripping and screaming at me then for "apparently pushing there products" because I found them helpful and talked about them here! Caphasol is $700 a month! You dont think somebody is getting extremely rich and that is not a rip off! But I guess If I was one of there 5k drug reps that market there products THEN I would be a P.O.S. because I talked about it here! Once again so EVERYONE knows I am not a rep for melaleauca and for the people that sent me PM's know that because I told them who to sign up with if they were interested! Thank you!

I am currently reading Dr. Servon-Schreiber's book. Excellent.
Easy for a lay person to understand. I definitely will be working on some changes in my life style.

Jim my boy,

I was born and raised in the Commonwealth of Virginia and not only is it in the South, Richmond, it's capital, was the capital of the Confederacy. Not necessarily the brightest idea any southerner has ever come up with being only 100 miles from the Northern border but none the less, it was the capital. Monument Ave that runs through the center of the city has monuments of many famous generals of the Confederacy and my high school's nick name was the Rebels and our fight song was Dixie.

David,
Well I have been to richmond, grew up in Harrisburg which is right outside of baltimore md, which of course is not far from VA. I have also been to some backwoods of GA and maybe during the confederacy you could say it was south but anytime recent??? Just tell some of these good ole boys in GA, SC, and Bama that VA is the south and see what happens! lol, they dont even have good BBQ in VA! lol...good ham though!
