Talking Re: A Message from Dr. Love about the New Mammography Guidelines

Well, if it was, Rich, I recommend Fish Oil, and a host of anti-inflammatory supplements!

I think the discussions are great. I am enjoying the process, personally. As for the Times, well, I've always considered it an over-priced rag, but that's just me. When I lived on Long Island many years ago my boyfriend and I would go to Jones Beach on Sundays with the Times, of course. I'd read through my favorite sections, take a long walk, a dip, and then I was ready to go. My boyfriend loved to bake in the sun, the "bronzed Adonis" I called him, which drove me nuts. I suppose I should give the Times credit for keeping me distracted while he roasted himself.

Has anyone signed the petition over on BreastCancer.org? It is sponsored by Dr. Weiss. There is also a survey regarding the new guidelines.
