Flaming/Flame Wars
Flaming is reacting to someone's board posting or PM in a hostile manner by publicly chastising the person or bombarding the person with nasty posts or PM's. Flaming may occur to users that engage in behavior that violates what is considered proper board netiquette. A flame war occurs when two or more users flame each other in an escalating manner that threatens to continue unabated. If you notice a flame war developing just notify the moderator or adminitrator and let them handle it. Do not take part in flame wars. If you do you will be banned even if you did not start it :-)
I read an interesting article in The Washington Post a few weeks ago. The article referred to pharmaceuticals ordered from China/East. The gist of the article was that Chinese/Eastern (could this include Thailand?) meds were not reliable and that products from there could be in fact contaminated, etc. Did anyone else happen to see this article. It was over the Labor Day weekend. Maybe if you check the Post online. I thought it was interesting if not a bit alarming.
