It sure is. The writing is all over the wall. There is emerging a common
thread and theme to all these johnny come lately types and its starting to
stink like some old stuff from long ago.

I wonder if Bill George was a primary clencher, grinder, bruxer, TMD'r,
TMJ'r TMJD'r MPD'r, CMS'r, or what; and how the meditation helped him.
(Prediction: Sue will state he wasn't any of those and that she is just
pointing out how wonderfully relaxed he was). Or are we suppose to be
impressed by name dropping.

This place is beginning to stink and I don't like it. I predict the Great
War of 96' may return yet.
