who knows if I would have ever seen the other, I have been so ditzed out doing MIRT I hardly ever make it into the Lounge anymore - or just peek see one thing and then bang another MIRT alert...

I can't imagine how good it must have felt to hear those lab results. Congratulations!

I feel like a ditz, but: what's MIRT? I'm fairly certain it's not Muskegon Internal Rapid Transit . . . .

And -- Thanks!!

it is a busy group! here is the current team http://www.democraticunderground.com/10131702

it is really interesting - think about giving it a try next term, or at least give hosting a try - THAT is quite a bit easier! especially if you do a small quiet group or a state group. or the Lounge - very little to do, hardly ever any alerts. (scroll up above the MIRT info for some about hosting)

Sounds tiring and selfless.

As for me, I'm not on DU enough (I browse only once/twice per day) to be a troll killef or even to host a group. I admire everyone who can do it!

I am way too slow and hardly ever catch any of them. But it is interesting and I try to contribute to the discussions when something isn't just blatantly obvious. The fast folks get those before I even look!
