That was unnecessary and divisive. Pete is here, offering his two cents and all are free to respond, especially if it is with humor and personal experience. As you say, this is Pete's thread, and it is his place to take umbrage to a response made to him. It is not ours to interpret ill intent on the behalf of others.

Hey Blake- You know I've
Hey Blake- You know I've responded to you privatly but just for the record, there is a fine line between "humor" and mockery and that is how I interpreted WM's (first)reply. That's my opinion. She has no "personal experience" with fasting against cancer and her reply only seemed to "rub it in" Pete's face that she does whatever she wants and is no worse off than he is. THAT reply, to me, was unnecessary and mocking yet my response gets flagged even though I complimented her for her positive outlook. So Blake, while nothing here involved you, You also felt the need to "take umbrage" with my response to Winter when she had a perfectly good response herself. You guys sure stick together. Also Blake, as you said to me in a PM, "Pete is a big boy and can stand up for himself", well so is Marie and she did a fine job of it without you. Lastly, we all know, intent of written words is difficult to know without knowing the person who wrote them and therefore we MUST interpret them individually. Based on Winter's past criticizm of nutrition based posts her reply seemed mocking of Pete's search for weapons against cancer and like your response to me, I felt like replying to her reply.
There, Winter explained herself, I explained myself and Pete just keeps showing us that big grinn.
Take care all, and again, sorry Pete for the interuption.

I took Winter Maries first
I took Winter Maries first reply as mockery as well.

Firsthand story
I never saw the tumour, he said it was on his shoulder. He lived on Oahu, came to Malibu with his wife and child. Divorced, supported his family setting up for trade shows. He lived at the beach. He was small and very thin, a short boarder. He says he starved the tumor, called it his own personal chemo, his name was kimo. He never saw a doctor. He is the most honorable person I know. He said it just made sense. He is still going 20+ years later. I don't think he had any other choice, but even if he did, I think he would have done it the same way,
