Indirectly we are subjects. I have not posted in a very long time other than occasionally on the Medication board. I haven't even looked at other boards but was alerted by someone to look on this board.

I am not a guinea pig and don't choose to be. I don't want to be used, and I do not think I am being silly. I don't want this to descend into insults. I hope it won't.
