   I think the fairest statement as a whole about TRI's feelings on Dixie's comments (if we have to sterotype^([sic]) TRI) is that TRI has determined that there is valid concern about the metabolic cycles in DS, and that they indeed differ from the "chromosmally^([sic]) deficient crowd" - those with only 46 chromies ;) On that, you indeed will get a concensus.^([sic]) You will also find concensus^([sic]) in that Nutrivene-D is the best way that they know, right now, to address that extra chromie from a nutritional standpoint.

   One day the silents and me were all together, a rogue army, and then it was just me, again, riding around on my bike. Stealing chromies off cars just for something to steal. Trying to figure out why I always lost.
