To BAD-
Re your comment on vaccine SAFETY-
Here is the definition of safe:
1: free from harm or risk
2 a: secure from threat of danger, harm, or loss
Here too is a link to have your Rep support exactly this-
http://tinyurl.com/63j9ey
House Resolution 881, Mercury-Free Vaccine Act of 2007 would ban the use of mercury-containing vaccine in pregnant women and children younger than 6. It would ban the use of any vaccine with more than 1 microgram of mercury for the rest of the population.
House Resolution 1973, Vaccine Safety and Public Confidence Act of 2007, This bill would create a new agency completely separate form the Centers for Disease Control and Representatives Dave Weldon, MD, (Republican- Florida) and Carolyn Maloney (Democrat-New York) along with other thoughtful Representatives have sponsored three bills that move us toward greener vaccines.
House Resolution 2832, Comprehensive Comparative Study of Vaccinated and Un-Vaccinated Populations Act of 2007, This bill would have the National Institute of Health do the obvious, but never performed, analysis of the health outcomes with vaccinated and un-vaccinated groups.

TO: " Mod " RE: your comment on 6/7/08 @ 12:21 a.m.
I respect your equal right to personal opinion, however, being the mother of a 13 year old girl inflicted with autism, I had serious problems with your delivery of it. Having personally lived and breathed 13 years of unrelenting *autism* experience and research and all it’s heart break and joy, I find your insolent impugnation to be personally offensive to every single individual with autism and their loved ones. First of all, your callous audacity is not even based on fact ! Just what education, credentials, life experience and proven medical research do you have that qualifies you to state your mere opinion as though it were fact? The entire *autism* debate is currently being argued in court by EXPERTS and no decision has yet been made, so unless you are psychic and know the future you may not want to foolishly state your opinion as fact just yet. You could stand corrected one day soon. Now, regarding your "I feel badly" "salve your guilt" and "real children" remarks: First, DO NOT FEEL BADLY FOR ME ! My daughter is AMAZING and so is my life. I feel overwhelmingly blessed to be the one that she teaches every day about the “real” meaning of life. *Second, please know that I HAVE NO GUILT !!! or any reason to have guilt .. Get that straight ok! Who/what ever is responsible for the autism owns that guilt!
Finally, I think you really earned the *wording* prize with your “at the expense of real children”: remark. Just what are you implying? That children with autism are not "real" children? HOW DARE YOU! Just who do you think you are to make such an inhumane moronic statement about innocent children that you know nothing about?! My daughter is as REAL as they come and even with the autism, she apparently has more brains, heart and personality then you could hope for. In fact, I feel bad for YOU Mod. I think only a person that has had the privilege of knowing and loving someone with autism can understand exactly what it is that I mean when I say to you, and to anyone with the same apparent mindset, that *You are missing out and you don’t it even know it*. Maybe one day you will be fortunate enough to understand what I mean and also realize just who IT IS that is truly "hurting people" here.

"Mercury doesn't cause autism."
Mod:
*Mercury* is a neurotoxin which can produce neurological injury.
My son has neurological problems which manifested shortly after being vaccinated with multiple shots which contained mercury.
And *that* is a fact no matter which way you try and slice it.

Always nice when members of the Skeptic Society of Scientific Science hits the mean streets of age of autism to let us know, in no uncertain terms, just how moronic, dangerous, and "insane" we are. Thanks fellas. It's heart-warming that you took the time away from your James Randi circle jerk to illuminate us blasphemers on the real scientific method.

Teresa Conrick :"More people will not vaccinate unless they are made safe"
Since your definition of "safe" excludes the use of scientific evidence to measure safety, how will you know when the vaccines are "safe"?
Posted by: Bad | June 08, 2008 at 11:40 PM
Mod-
How is making vaccines "green" going to hurt anyone? Your cheerleading for unsafe ingredients does little to sell anyone on vaccination. More people will not vaccinate unless they are made safe, then it will be on you, people like you, and your archaic thinking as diseases increase.

seriously. Are you all insane? Just because the number of vaccines correlates with a perceived increase in autism does not mean the 2 are in any way linked. But to show that, you'd need whats called 'data', instead of 'anecdote'. I feel badly for you to have to deal with autism on a daily basis. But not badly enough to let you salve your guilt with the false promise of green vaccines at the expense of real children dying of preventable disease. vaccines don't cause autism. Mercury doesn't cause autism. Quit hurting people with your false claims.

I loved the little girl's t-shirt that said, "I'm just like Hannah"

"We are your scientific evidence".
It had the photo of my niece in the back along with my son's photo and his 10 classmates from his pre-verbal therapy. All of them with Autism.
Thanks for the coverage and your hard work!

Dan,
I was at the rally with my eldest and youngest son (the middle brother has autism.) I saw a sign that moved me to tears: "I wish I could talk to my brother, but vaccines took his voice." Worthy of inclusion, I think!
best,
Sorsha
