FAQ - Message Board & Chat Room Rules
By Thom
The Thom Hartmann Program Forum & Chat Room Rules:
The message boards and chat room are communities designated as safe places for people to come and discuss topics. While all variety of opinions are welcome here, people who make others feel unsafe in the chat room or forums in the following ways (or others, at the discretion of the owners and managers of the message boards and chat rooms) may be evicted and
banned.
1. Abusive Posting: Ad Hominem attacks, death threats, racism, anti-
Semitism, and trolling are all prohibited and can result in a ban.
2. Altering Quotations: Do not alter the wording or make it appear as
though another member had said something which they did not.
3. Anti-Semitism/racism: This creates a hostile environment contrary
to the purposes of community and a welcoming forum environment.
4. Flooding and Stomping in the Chat Room and on the Message Boards:
Flooding the chat room and message boards with disagreeable posts that
serve to dominate, intimidate and prevent others from posting or
chatting diminish user's sense of a safe community. We reserve the
right to remove any duplicates at our discretion, and to request that
no more duplicates or similar messages are posted.
5. Banned User Procedure: A member who has been banned may email the
Forum Moderator to apologize, to appeal the decision or to clarify.
Once a Forum Moderator has taken action, He/She will decide to
reinstate or not.
6. Contempt of Site: This is a private community, and people who show
contempt for it should and can find a different community with which
to interact.
7. Personal Information: Do not post personal telephone numbers, e-
mail addresses, street addresses, or mailing addresses of anyone but
yourself (and we recommend you don't post your own personal
information) or by expressed permission of the person whose
information you are posting. If the information is posted with the
intent to harass or intimidate, flood their mailbox or solicit
harassment in any way, then a ban will result.
8. Trolling: Trolling is to deliberately post derogatory or
inflammatory comments in order to bait other guests into angrily
responding. They may also focus on changing the subject or diluting
the discussion with content-poor posts, or focus on only one topic and
point of view whatever the discussion. The troll has no intention of
taking part in discussions, save to try and ruin the quality of the
community for others. Trolls may also adopt sock puppets - alternative
identities - to further their aims. Trolls will be banned.
9. Spamming and advertising: Members are to use their accounts for
personal, non-commercial interests and discussions.
10. Copying from the board: Content from this message board may not be
posted, except by its original poster to this board, to other venues
on the internet without the explicit written permission of the owners
of this message board.

About a question on KXY pipe manufacturing asked on TV show on Feb. 19, Wednesday
I watch Cspan regularly, particularly Washington Journal in the AM. Anyway.. some months back.. possibly over a year ago, I saw the Congressman who represents the Pittsburg district, I believe his name is Mike Doyle.. speaking on the House Floor, saying he wished that some STEEL manufacturer in the USA had had a CHANCE to BID on that steel pipe for the KXL. According to Representative Doyle, ALL PIPE is being manufactured in Russia and India, and the steel is from India. You can call Rep Doyle for more info.

My wife and I got our 2nd Pfizer shot last week - no nasty side effects. I was glad to see it was RNA (no live or attenuated virus) with no mercury or other nasties in there. Anyway, I have emailed the CDC at least 3 times asking why don't any pandemic experts in the media (including Dr. Fauci) recommend to people to get their vitamin D levels checked with a 25 hydroxy D test since a few studies have shown that low vitamin D levels ramps up the immune system. I asked if a study was done to see if Afro Americans with serious Covid 19 side effects have low vitamin D levels since higher melanin levels prevents adsorption of vitamin D from the sun. Looks like a possible correlation to many but not to the CDC. I also emailed MSNBC a few times asking why there are no naturopathic doctors (or MDs who practice natural medicine) on any of their shows promoting ramping up with Vitamin D3. No answer yet - perhaps it's because their cash cows are the Big Pharma commercials with lab made drugs. Big pharma despises natural remedies since a patent can't be obtained for Vitamin D3. About 8 years ago I would get severe eczema and SADS every November (I live in the Seattle area - if you want SADS - this is the place). I asked the derm doc, what is the mechanism. She said, it's because the air is drier in the winter time. I told her I'm not buying that because my house if fairly humid. She gave me a cream and prednisone. The cream gave me nasty burns on my belly, legs and neck and the Prednisone made me (a guy) look 3 months pregnant! I was done with that. I suspected low D levels so I had to beg my family MD to give me the 25 hydroxy D test. With reluctance from her and the nurses, they drew my blood. My D levels were near 0!!! I started ramping up and got my D levels above 60 and try to keep it there. It's been 8 years and haven't had SADS, eczema, a cold or flu since. My family doc (a naturopath) always reminds me to keep my D levels up along with Liposomal vitamin C and zinc. You won't hear this come from a traditional MD. This is the same cocktail treatment given to trump by his Osteopath Dr. Who knows where trump would be if his Dr. omitted the natural cocktail. I'm also wondering why Thom hasn't had a Natural doc on his show emphasizing this safe immune boosting regimen. I watch Thom on FSTV almost every day and look forward to that day. I know Thom is not in cahoots with big pharma like the MSM. This aforementioned regimen could be saving thousands of lives yet, due to corporate profit motives, we hear crickets!

From Screwed:
"The powers that be are running roughshod over the powers that OUGHT to be. Hartmann tells us what went wrong — and what you and I can do to help set American right again."
From Unequal Protection, 2nd Edition:
"Beneath the success and rise of American enterprise is an untold history that is antithetical to every value Americans hold dear. This is a seminal work, a godsend really, a clear message to every citizen about the need to reform our country, laws, and companies."
From The Thom Hartmann Reader:
"Thom Hartmann is a creative thinker and committed small-d democrat. He has dealt with a wide range of topics throughout his life, and this book provides an excellent cross section. The Thom Hartmann Reader will make people both angry and motivated to act."
On June 27 1992, Dorothy Bush LeBlond (George W. Bush's sister) and Bobby Koch exchanged wedding vows during a ceremony held at the Evergreen Chapel at Camp David. It was the first wedding ever performed at the chapel.
The wedding festivities began at 4PM when arriving guests gathered at Laurel Lodge for refreshments while waiting for the ceremony to begin.
The Evergreen Chapel was decorated with peach roses. Music played above in the balcony and the bride came down the aisle escorted by her father President George H.W. Bush. The bride wore a wedding dress designed by Arnold Scaasi with salmon chiffon and lace.
The reception was held behind the Aspen Lodge. Tables were set up for 130 guests on the terraces and around the pool. The White House chefs made a cake and cooked a buffet dinner which included fresh salmon that Senator Ted Stevens sent from Alaska. The Marine Band played country music.
Some White House staff members volunteered on the day of the event. Off-duty White House butlers helped with serving the guests and some staff from the florist shop decorated the chapel and the reception tables.
They have 2 children, Robert Koch born 1992 (short pregnancy?)
And Gigi Koch born 1995. Has anyone ever seen them?
