I believe someone on one of the MCS lists has been looking into possibly buying a yurt. There is one for sale in Dunsmuir, CA (near Mt. Shasta). I personally...
does anyone on this list have private insurance? do you have to be totally truthful when applying, do they send for your medical records? my cobra is $900 mo...
Okay, this is one of those moments where MCS is just ridiculous... I picked up my new glasses, and noticed some chemical residue on the nose pads. I figured it...
Dear Isis -- Well, I haven't a clue, but since mine are a soft plastic, I'd assume you are reacting to the plastic on your glasses, maybe with the addition of...

i think mcs is probably ridiculous a lot of moments. i don't see any nose pads on my glasses but i looked it up and there are articles on how to remove nose...
Exploding, oily nose pads...?! How completely bizarre! Funny that you searched for the problem in the ceiling, and it was on the bridge of your nose all along....
i read if they turn yellow it is sort of ok but if they turn green with gunk you should replace them. i am still wondering what they are. maybe mine just don't...
HI, I've been using glasses for over 52 years . . . this was the one and only time I ever even heard of such a thing, let alone, seen it happen. I never...

Your story about the nose pads was very funny, and I'd like to include it in the book I'm supposed to be writing (The Grace of a Single Night). It's rare that...

I know people around the Bay who've rented out a goat or two for this very purpose. But the area to be "mowed" has to be free of toxics. ... I’d much rather...

HI, Donna and All -- Glad to provide it. What's funny about Kaiser from my perspective is that I've found it wonderful care by very caring doctors . . . until...
