I have been reading the last few weeks of messages and it has made me think
why I went to the internet looking for information related to TM. I have read
that some people look as this service as a support group. I do not believe
that what I was necessarily looking for. I have done some thinking about this
and I have decided that the reasons that I discovered this list are:

1) to find any information related to TM and in particular the long term
effects of TM
2) the relationship between TM and MS
3) what the medical field is doing to discover the cause of TM
4) to find out what are the leading medical facilities/research centers.

Over the last two weeks there has been some dialogue in our discussions that
I do not necessarily agree with. I also believe that individuals can disagree
with ideas, concepts, etc... What I have not liked is the tone of some of the
discussions. I do not believe anything can be accomplished if we are rude to
each other. If I do not agree with someone, I believe that I have the right
to disagree but I should have the courtesy not to put someone else down.

As far as all the theories of TM, I would have to say they remain just that -
theories. As far as which medical plan or which country has better coverage -
they are just peoples opinions. As far as I know - No medical coverage/plan
has come up with a cure for TM.

I am curious why all of you came to the internet looking for info on TM. What
is your purpose of being on this list. Perhaps if everyone can jot down a few
of their reasons why they are here it might lead to some productive
discussions and sharing.
