bed. Now we do have an opportunity to show how many of us care, how many o=
f
us have family members who care. Simply by watching the CFSAC meeting we
will be counted as interested parties. Perhaps if enough of us watch we
will prevent Dr. Reeves prophecy about not being able to replicate WPI=B9s
findings from coming true. Perhaps if there are enough of us watching they
will realize that they have to use the same methods the WPI used =AD includin=
g
the same methods of selecting patients. The samples must be from people wh=

fit the Canadian Criteria & the Fukuda International definition. One would
like to think that CDC kept samples from the Tahoe outbreak; after all it=B9s
a mystery illness they have not cracked. Perhaps this time the CDC will
accept the help of the WPI researchers in the event that the CDC has as muc=
h
trouble replicating findings. Unlike their refusal to work with Elaine De
Fritas.
We need to watch, and take an interest. Please don=B9t boycott just because
you think that CFS is not ME. You will only be hurting yourselves. Just
voting =B3present=B2 will make a difference.
I=B9m setting my alarm clock & will be in bed, watching.
