What a sucky Dx. Have you seen patientslikeme.com? I joined a while back, haven't been good about charting regularly, but it's got great resources for research, sharing with the fibro and other communities, as well as awesome charting tools.<br /><br />Air hugs!<br /><br />PS - my captcha was HONTERS... nice@inkgrrlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16735828732037626116noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32289702.post-83194172677103464232011-06-07T00:08:29.411-05:002011-06-07T00:08:29.411-05:00According to this article in The Atlantic, the F-3...According to this article in The Atlantic, the F-35 fighter plane, the latest and greatest in killing machines, costs $90 million a pop. The government is planning to buy 2,443 of them. What if we went crazy and bought 2,000 of them instead? That's still a crap load of killing power, and we could take the $39 billion+ in savings and put it toward friendlier things. Like say education, medical research, or even reasonable care for veterans. (We can spend the money to get them blown up, but we're not so good with taking care of them once they get home.)<br /><br />http://www.theatlantic.com/national/archive/2011/03/the-f-35-a-weapon-that-costs-more-than-australia/72454/<br /><br />Thanks for the healing energy, Julie!
