Re: Class Action Defamation Suit against Barret - Hey Pat
Posted by The other Patrick on 3/04/05

    No Mary. I'm not Patrick Casanova. I knew someone would assume
    that. So, I should call myself the other Patrick; or my middle
    name, Anthony. None-the-less, Patrick Casanova's writings
    weren't bad at all. I too wonder what happened to him. I sent
    him an "introduction of myself email" a few weeks ago. No
    response. I wonder if the worse happened to him; or even the
    next-to-the-worse.

    >> VIII] Central New York Health Occupational Clinical Center.
    >> IX] Marshall University.
    >> X+] a number of board certified and licensed physicians.
    >>
    >> Plus, there is the technologically advanced nation of

    >> And there are also a notable number of licensed entities

    >>
    >> "Indoor Air Quality Assessment", "Building-related Illness",
    >> "Sick Building Syndrome", "Environmentally-related

    >> Illness", "Occupationally-induced Illness", etc.

    >> And this includes the world renown Duke, as well as Iowa
    >> Univ., Boston Medical Ctr., the Univ. of Maryland, and the
    >> Univ. of Pittsburgh (home of the polio vaccine and first
    >> liver transplant.)
    >>

    >>
    >> 1] Chemically-induced Hepatitis, 2] Chemically-induced

    >>
    >> The subset, of course, would consist in those who suffered

    >>

    >> the following physiological medical findings:
    >>
    >> 1] Inflammation Scenarios, such as Turbinate Hypertrophy
    >> & Interstitial Inflammation.
    >> 2] Failing the Arterial Blood Gases Test.
    >> 3] Dermatitis scenarios and similar.
    >> 4] Enzyme QPon-1 Deficiency.
    >> 5] Erythema, even internally.
    >> 6] Over Production of Leukotrienes, such as LTD4.
    >> 7] The Production of N-acetyl-benzoquinoneimine in
    >> excess of the Mercapturate which neutralizes it.
    >> 8] Elevations of Alanine Aminotransferase,
    >> aka Serum Glutamic Pyruvic Transaminase.
    >> 9] Hyperactive Conjugations and Deficient Conjugations.
    >> 10] Visible and Measurable Wheals during Skin Testing.
    >> etc., etc., etc.
    >>
    >> And then there is the matter P-300 Waves, IgA immunoglobins,
    >> T-Cells, porphyira, and the observable and non-deniable
    >> symptom of Profuse Dry Heaving, as well as that of
    >> Blacking-Out. All in all, the smoking gun was the Fiber
    >> Optic Rhinolaryngoscopic Exam and the medical findings thereof.
    >>
    >> The defamatory propaganda resulted in the deprivation of

    >> America believed the conclusions of Barret/Stossel/Fumento
    >> and refused to accomodate a chemical sensitivity sufferer in

    >> machine caused? In as much, all Chemical Sensitivity
    >> sufferers have suffered triply:
    >>
    >> 1] at the hands of the illness,
    >> 2] at the hands of a ruthless form of defamation,
    >> 3] at the hands of abandonment for years, due to
    >> little research funding and outrightly lazy physicians
    >> who make lots of money upon one nitch repetitively,
    >> steamlining their practices to a comfortable laziness.
    >>
    >> At this point in time, the plaintiff-class of Chemical
    >> Sensitivity Sufferers would have mainstream medicine on it's
    >> side. After all, the AMA, AAAAI, and American Lung
    >> Association all recognize Chemical Sensitivity as it applies
    >> to the ASTHMA symptom. And the AAAAI & AMA recognize it as
    >> it applies to Dermatitis, Aspririn/Salicylate Senstivity,
    >> Ramin Wood Allergy, Acetaminophen Intolerance, Red Cedar
    >> Allergy, Peruvian Lily Allergy, Isocyanate Sensitivity,
    >> Phthalic Anhydride Hypersensitivty, etc.
    >>
    >> Moreover, the AMA, AAAAI, & ALA all advocate the practice of
    >> AVOIDANCE as a necessary part of treatment for the
    >> chemically sensitive, as it applies to asthmatics. Their
    >> official literature enumerates the same chemical-bearing
    >> agents that MCS patients has been avoiding for years, out of
    >> instinct. And remember, Barrett condemned the practice of
    >> AVOIDANCE as detrimental, while Fumento called the practice
    >> "nonsense." Thus is the proof that Barrett is the real
    >> quack, speaking contrary to the AMA & AAAAI. (Fumento is
    >> simply a pushy-shovey brat who needs to be put his place, as
    >> all bully-brats picking on helpless people need to be.)

    >> Furthermore, comdemning the practice of AVOIDANCE, while
    >> asserting that Chemical Sensitivity patients must be placed
    >> in direct encounter with the triggers that torment them, is
    >> the act of inciting a crime known in some jurisdictions as
    >> TOXIC BATTERY. Thus, Fumento and Barret have publicly
    >> advocated the committing of crimes.
    >>
    >> Proof that the AMA, AAAI, & ALA recognize Chemical
    >> Sensitivity, at least as it applies to the ASTHMA symptom,
    >> can be found at the following mainstream medical sites:
    >>
    >> AMA Report 4 of the Council of Scientific Affairs (A-98),
    >> found at http://ama-assn.org/ama/pub/category/13603.html

    >>
    >> The propaganda mahcine fraudulently went about, claiming
    >> that the AMA & AAAAI condemned MCS as non-existent. This is
    >> a lie. The AMA & AAAAI merely declined to recognize the
    >> specific title, Multiple Chemical Sensitivity, as a
    >> case-specific diagnostic title of its own medical code.
    >> This is because MCS is too vague and non-case-specific of a
    >> name. The AMA & AAAAI merely said that more research was
    >> needed to be done, in order them to encapsulate MCS into a
    >> meticulously defined and analysed "case definition". And
    >> though they did not recognize Multiple Chemical Sensitivity
    >> by name, they still recognized the phenomenon of Sensitivity
    >> of Chemicals.
    >>
    >> Mainstreams Medical Science has long since recognized the
    >> process of "sensitization." And it has long since
    >> recognized the phenomenon of hypersensitivity to
    >> chemical-bearing agents when encountered by susceptible
    >> persons, at commonly encounter levels (at low to moderate
    >> levels).
    >>
    >> The MCS debate has been game of semantics. The anti-MCS

    >> contributing members must be held accountable.
