Comment on Two halves of a whole by Janet Wendy, founder, Gen Plus

Obama is a great man — when he speaks he brings tears to my eyes, too. And I agree with you — as a Jew, one of so few — approximately 14 million in a world of six billion plus people — I don't know if it is possible for someone who is not a Jew to understand that deep mystical connection that your quote expresses so beautifully.

An excellent, excellent post and a compelling comment from Megan.It is beyond absurd. If you have been out of test strips for one month, that means you probably tried to get them about 6 weeks to 2 months ago. Wonder what they’ll say when your plan has to start shelling out $75/visit just so you can get your blood checked at your doctor’s office. Or when your blood sugar hits 300, your blood pressure blows out (from the aggravation), and you don’t know it, pass out in your car, which hits a restaurant window, shutting down that business for three weeks and you end up in the hospital and THEN your insurance plan will have to cover $150,000 for a hospital stay. Or deal with a nasty lawsuit from your children? What do you think test strips actually cost? $20/month? Even $60 or $100? Is anyone in government reading this??? To think that the insurance companies will figure out a way to cut costs is ludicrous when they couldn’t give a hoot about the patients who are paying them $6,000 – $12,000 a year just to be insured.

Um, OH MY GOSH. I just stumbled upon this blog and got sucked in by the Kafka reference, but now I want to get you test strips! This is unbelievably absurd, and you’re right – Obama’s first order of business should be to give Medicare a big whack on the head and say, “HEY! These people have actual HEALTH PROBLEMS and aren’t just trying to PULL THE WOOL OVER YOUR EYES. Please send them their FREAKING TEST STRIPS or else drag them into a ditch and blow them up like Josef K, because that’s just about what you’re doing with your ridiculous restrictions. Hmph. After you wait until you’re old, they’ll probably say, “These test strips were only meant for you. And now I’m going to close it–er, throw them away.”

Your mom may not be in this realm, but I’m pretty sure she is bragging to every soul she meets on the angel highway. And a little birdie told me that your 4 kids and 3 grandkids brag about you at every opportunity!

Well, it does sound a little corny, but listening to Larry King tonight, interviewing a panel of successful entrepreneurs, it really is about optimism and the innovation of the American people. And, heck, if it takes a few rousing choruses to accompany the stimulus package, I’m all for it.

Comment on When does life start? That is the question. by Corinne Copnick

You are right if participants do not respect the process, and that is why I emphasize ethical concerns and behavior. Today we have donor sibling registries, which did not exist not too long ago, as well as DNA tests to establish kinship. If you were born from donated eggs or sperm, wouldn’t you check in this way that science now makes available before getting married?

Donorship is a dnagerous idea given that we are playing roulette regarding inadvertsant incest: who knows who will marry who and if they are related their children will be in-bred. Incest.

Comment on Of good heart and mind by Janet Wendy, founder, Gen Plus

What a great and thought-provoking article. I went with my daughter to see “Walking with Dinosaurs”, the live theatrical staging of the BBC chronology of dinosaur evolution. As it turns out, they were a highly adaptable species, lasting hundreds of millions of years. The only thing they couldn’t adapt to was a 6 mile comet hurtling into the now Gulf of Mexico at 20,000 feet per second. Humans are such a young species in comparison and the parallels you draw in the short time span of 70 years resonates with me. We will likely not experience a cataclysmic natural event. We seem determined. as a species, to create our own demise.
