sunflower, i'm glad you're feeling better about it. that means you're sticking around with us for a while? hope so.
btw, did you consider pm'ing docjohn about the distress you felt? it might clue him in to how upsetting that is for some. also, i think when in his chat, it might be hard to keep up with everyone's reactions because it's SOOOOO busy in there on those nites. he's become quite the celeb

i don't know, but from observing it seems that way to me lately, so maybe the distress wasn't picked up on...and might not be again unless it's brought to the forefront with pm or something of that nature.
just a suggestion
