Perhaps losted is one of the orbs speaking to us from beyond? He/She seems to frequent a lot of the facilities captured on this site.

I'm all about apologizing today... but wanted to say, sorry about my last post... it's probably the bitterness/cynic in me.

Ok... My apologies right away. I have been consumed with this site for the past few weeks, and adore it! I have also been reading (tons!) of the past comments submitted... Lynne, as many have commented, the knowledge you have shared is wonderful. My interest in mental health and my actual profession (ugggh, HR, well, you might need some insight to mental health when dealing with employee relations right?) differ a bit, and in my research on the history of mental health, there has been derogatory info regarding staff. It is refreshing to hear the other side of the story. I am very appreciative for your willingness to share your experiences, and knowledge, oh and, I did see a couple of requests here asking you to write a book... I too would love to hear more of your stories/experiences. Sorry...

Sorry, didn't start out to post this as a tribute to Lynne <g>, but after a few weeks of reading some posts, I needed to share, and express my utter displeasure of reading arachnidher's incessant questions and request for comments. Sorry. I see one of these, and I cringe, knowing what comes next... If anyone has any questions or comments, please email me at; katiep@yaddayaddayadda.com
