There are a lot of people on the Internet with immune related
illnesses. Because of this, I've floated the idea for a sci.med
immunology newsgroup. (Note: this has all been done informally,
I haven't started a formal RFD with Ron Dippold yet.) The
response from patients has been overwhelming: folks from the immune
list, the chronic fatigue syndrome list, the fibromyalgia list, alt.
med.allergy and with AIDS have sent me many messages calling for one.
However, the response from MDs and immunologists has been underwhelming
at best. One person suggested that this would duplicate the function
of your newsgroup here, bionet.immunology.
