Maybe Therapy Might Have Helped Terri Schiavo « GWOM »

Man with liquid-filled brain case has full, normal life.

A man with an unusually tiny brain managed to live an entirely normal life despite his condition, caused by a fluid buildup in his skull, French researchers reported on Thursday.

Scans of the 44-year-old man's brain showed that a huge fluid-filled chamber called a ventricle took up most of the room in his skull, leaving little more than a thin sheet of actual brain tissue.

Ironically, I saw this report at Hot Air*, whose main poster is Allahpundit. The irony is that if I recall correctly, Allahpundit was one of the main opponents of attempts to prevent Terri Schiavo from being starved to death, and often citing a near-identical fluid-filled brain as "proof" she was brain-dead.

Now, I admit that it might not have been Allahpundit who posted that headline to the Hot Air page. Or I might be wrong that he was ridiculing those attempting to save Terri's life. If so, there is no irony.

*Since their headline section is dynamic, there will likely be no evidence of this headline linked from their site after something new pushes it off.

My coder is trying to persuade me to move to .net from PHP. I have always disliked the idea because of the costs. But he's tryiong none the less. I've been using WordPress on a variety of websites for about a year and am worried about switching to another platform. I have heard great things about blogengine.net. Is there a way I can import all my wordpress posts into it? Any help would be really appreciated!

I wish to show appreciation to you just for rescuing me from this particular dilemma. Just after surfing around throughout the the web and coming across thoughts that were not powerful, I believed my entire life was well over. Being alive devoid of the answers to the problems you've solved as a result of the guide is a serious case, as well as the kind which might have in a negative way affected my career if I had not come across your web site. Your own personal know-how and kindness in dealing with every aspect was valuable. I don't know what I would have done if I hadn't encountered such a solution like this. I am able to at this point look forward to my future. Thanks for your time very much for your reliable and effective guide. I will not hesitate to propose your web site to any person who should get support on this issue.
