While we're on the topic, is there any ME/CFS online board that stays in the same zip code as science? I really don't want to wade through yakkage about energy crystals, dog hair detox or "it's an NWO conspiracy1111!!" when I'm trying to find some, any scrap of understanding this condition and how to deal with it.
