Larry,
OK this has nothing to do with the original thread...
>>I'm happy to contribute here, especially because my life in the "normal world" has been so adversely affected by my illness. I'd probably be a tenured professor by now, but instead.....
<<Your wistfulness (is that a word) for the traditional tenured professor position made me sigh, too. I know what it's like to feel like real life gets slowed down or materially changed by my depression. But I wanted to reiterate how valuable your contributions are here. Maybe this is an unconventional forum in which to contribute knowledge, but it can be and is an important one. *I* for one really appreciate the stuff you've written, your knowledge, and your access to research and other information.Life never goes the way we think it will. In a way, that's an amazing gift. *I* am glad you are on this planet. :-)
