> I just think it's anxiety-producing, sometimes, for things, people, places, to not "feel" like they used to feel. It is for me, anyway. But I believe those feelings can be tolerated and won't last forever. Change is hard, but does not necessarily destroy. Reshaping sure does hurt sometimes, and it is at the least, uncomfortable! That's kinda (partially) how I see Babble.

> BayLeaf> That is a really good idea! Focus on the niche that is Babble, which are meds. We need to attract more med experts to Babble. Dr. Bob, is there any way, you or some other pdoc you know can pay us a visit and answer a few questions about meds?

> DenebThat's an interesting idea, to focus more on Meds somehow. Thanks for your brainstorming! Separate meds boards? I know Scott had some different ideas for Neurotransmitters...
