I have learned about and been wounded by the horrors of the holocaust since I was old enough to understand, although nobody can ever truly understand such evil. I don't think we owe any nazi any gratitude for anything. Much of what they learned or recorded about medicine came from torturing and experimenting on live human beings. I would prefer to call the disease by a different name. Yes, the disease is a nazi too, but I don't want a nazi's name having anything to do with me or my body. I don't have a choice about having the disease, but we do have a choice about what to call it. Phil, I don't think it's fair to say someone is in the minority unless you've actually taken a poll of all forum members. Has someone done so? It would be easy to change the name but have the site still come up in search results when someone searches the old name. I've reverted to calling it WG just because everyone else does and I don't have the energy to be a revolutionary. But I had to chime in and say I agree with cekmsover.
Just when the caterpillar thought the world was over, she became a butterfly.
