[QUOTE="SteveC, post: 8734670, member: 9053"] This is really getting frustrating, especially from someone that I have a huge amount of respect for. Frankly, the notion that I'm trying to minimize this situation, when as I've written, I've had a class and training on this, and have literally been in the ER with friends multiple times is insulting. Having had to council people on my floor who were dealing with it after too much drink and then going back to sit awake for hours, I just have no idea what to even say in response. Embarrassment is one of the most powerful reasons why people don't do things in the universe. It is far more powerful than "oops, I farted." Not acknowledging it as a factor and somehow saying it's minimizing things is ... I don't even know what. I have to apologize at this point, since this is your house and you run the show here, but you could not be more off base in saying I'm trying to make this not sound important. I will put the work that I've put in on this front against most people. It's important to me, but it's also something I don't talk about much because it's far from what we normally come here to discuss. So I'll just bow out of the conversation at this point and just really scratch my head at the whole thing. Sounds like its time for me to take a break from Enworld for a bit. As always, it's your house and your rules: feel free to delete all of my posts on the discussion if you feel they are somehow inappropriate. [/QUOTE]
