I found this poem and I was moved. It's hard not to think about it once you've read it. It was written almost 100 years ago and is still valid today. This is the poem, complete.
I KNEW a simple soldier boy
Who grinned at life in empty joy,
Slept soundly through the lonesome dark,
And whistled early with the lark.
In winter trenches, cowed and glum,
With crumps and lice and lack of rum,
He put a bullet through his brain.
No one spoke of him again.
You smug-faced crowds with kindling eye
Who cheer when soldier lads march by,
Sneak home and pray you'll never know
The hell where youth and laughter go.
by Siegfried Sassoon circa 1917

The Sheen Solution™
'Bad Boy’ Behavior Due to Mercury Exposure
If you haven't already done so, please listen to my podcast at TalkShoe # 130
This was the first time that we (Charlie Sheen and I) have gone public with the fact that our conversations lasted 2 years and it influenced and motivated his turn around in social misbehavior.
To go into more specific detail of the conversations would be inappropriate. However, a further explanation of the how and why Charlie has recovered would be appropriate.
First, I had to watch and identify him as someone that I could possibly help. Watching Charlie on TV was uncomfortable for me. I knew that he was being brow beaten from every direction except for the people who were feeding him the false illusion of tranquility via the vices of drugs, alcohol and sex. I didn't have much optimism of success because of the social clutter and chaos that I knew was around him. I decided to try to make contact, regardless. I was pretty shocked when he accepted my friendship on Facebook and Skype on my first try. I was actually stalled by my success but I had to push through my hesitation and try to maintain his attention. When I succeeded in both areas I was certain that he was desperately seeking someone who would listen to him without judgment. Who could also understand the obscure, and seemingly, unintelligible code he was speaking.
Second, His motivation was easy to determine because he accepted my friendship so quickly. It was my responsibility to keep him motivated, until he was connected to his life again. I determined quickly that he was a no nonsense character and any bull-shit on my part would have driven him away. The truth was the only weapon in my bag of tricks. So I used it. Charlie was dealing with allot of complex problems that I was neither equipped nor able to help out with. I decided to give him advice that was tried and true for at least 2500 years. When I was reading about his dilemma with the program of 'Two and A Half Men', I elected to offer him advice directly out of Sun Tzu's 'Art of War'. Without telling him to sue or not to sue, I told him "Never enter a battle that you don't expect to win." When I read in the news that he had decided to sue . . . I knew that he had already won. This fight and his success would give him a lift in personality and confidence, which was a major part of his recovery.
Third, education and justification was the pivotal benchmark of his recovery. I am not a sage or have any social skills that anybody else could or should use. What I do have is an extensive education in heavy metal poisoning. I recognized, very early on, that Charlie was acting under the influence of at least mercury. Probably other metals but the mercury was the easiest to identify and correct without any great effort on either of our parts. Within one month of talking to him, I told him that I didn't think that he was an alcoholic, drug addict or an unusually violent personality. This caught his attention in a profound manner. That statement went against everything that everybody was saying to and about him. He wanted to know more. Now I had to deliver in a clear and concise way. I told Charlie that he was behaving in a way that could and should have been defined, medically, as an 'erethism'. I went farther and gave him the definition's location so that he could read it for himself. The next step was to show him how and what he was being poisoned by and I suggested that he had teeth that were filled with mercury. He researched and verified what I was telling him and he confirmed and was satisfied that what I was teaching him was true, accurate and correct.
Fourth, being three thousand miles away, I couldn't suggest to him that he rely on a support system of friends or family. The reason being, that I didn't know any of his family or friends. Besides, his family and friends, I was quite certain, had no knowledge of the subject that I was teaching Charlie. At some point, I am sure, that Charlie told, at least his family, that he was speaking to someone on the internet that was helping him out. I can only imagine what kind of cold shock and emotionally numbing paralysis that this information created. None the less, his family and friends tolerated his exchanges with me. Perhaps, they were observing that there was no harm being done or that while Charlie was on the internet, he was not doing drugs or alcohol. What ever the reason, I am grateful for their indulgences. In the span of two years, there were two unusually bad days that Charlie had to deal with. For these two incidents I recruited and relied on his brother, Emilio. I contacted Emilio and asked him to call Charlie, without giving him any reason or excuses. He did and the problem was solved. That is what I mean by a functioning support system. I'm confident that Charlie feels the same way. Without a functioning support system, my efforts would have failed.
Fifth, Undesirable influences, I saw as a problem that, I would not be able to defeat. This is the conclusion that I made. I didn't advise Charlie to get rid of any friends or family. These people were promoting his 'off the wall' behavior. With the information I was delivering and his superior intelligence, he was able to come to his own conclusions of good and bad influences. His decisions and behavior and that of some of the people around him corrected themselves. I hope that my influence on Charlie was seen as unbeatable and this motivated others to make the appropriate behavior changes. I will probably never know but I can always hope. Once Charlie removed his mercury filled teeth, I did suggest to him that he avoid people in his life with mercury in their mouths. I told him that this was essentially a guarantee of problems with behavior or compromised health. The simple fact is that nobody needs the emotional baggage of dealing with someone who is unpredictable or who has a serious health problem.
Sixth, One essential component of any sound relationship is trust, which implies faith. It was mandatory for me to communicate and demonstrate, effectively, that I would take full responsibility for any errors, mistakes or calamities that I created. I told him that everything that I was advising him to do or not to do, I had already experienced or done. I also advised him that if he took my advice that I was willing to go to court with him and testify that he was sound, stable and willing to take 100% responsibility for his children (sons). I was completely sincere and meant every word I said. Of all the conversations that we had, I think that this was one of my comments that affected him the most. I think that he concluded that I was as serious and honest as he had ever found and it gave him such a boost in moral that he was all ears from that point on. Actually, I was and am so sure that a person that is completely free of mercury influence is in fact, a genuine personality that can be relied upon, that I would be willing to wager anything and everything that I have or am.
Seventh, One area that I have not failed in, but not succeeded in, is the idea of follow thru. I know that Charlie has removed his mercury fillings from his mouth and will never again allow mercury to be applied to his teeth. What concerns me and will until he is motivated once more, is the fact that he carries a body burden of mercury (and other metals) from the early age of about 8 years old. This body burden will not go away by accident. It must be systematically attacked to instigate its evacuation. Charlie knows this because I told him. The problem is that he feels well enough to continue on with his life with minor adaptations for health anomalies. The time will come when his adaptations will not be sufficient enough and these incumbents will become symptoms, sufficient enough to diagnose a disease or condition that has no identified cause and no prescribed cure. When this event occurs, Charlie knows that he can contact me and I will do everything in my power to lead him to a recovery. The problem is that the process will not be as simple as the removal of a few fillings or teeth. It will involve my direct influence and not from 3000 miles away but in the next room or within driving distance. That will involve a life change for me and a belly full of anxiety for Charlie. I would prefer to prevent this event, rather then deal with it as a tension filled environment.
Eighth, during the two years of our conversations, both Charlie and I were dealing with life altering events that had the potential to destroy either or both of us. Under normal circumstances, if one person helps another there is usually a reward of some kind to be received. Most of the time it is economic, other times it is material. In this case it was neither and both at the same time. Basically, I helped Charlie with information and Charlie helped me with patience and tolerance. Truth be told, I believe that I’m the superior benefactor because what actually happened was that Charlie helped me thru a tough period while validating my entire life of research. He proved me correct while tolerating my rants and ramblings of misery.
I have been asked, “Why didn’t you charge him . . . he’s got money?” And, my answers to that is, if you drive down the road and see a person who has been in an accident, do you charge him for stopping and help out with information that you happen to have? My answer is NO! You get back in your car, go on you way and feel good about being able to make a difference with the abundance of information that you were able to accumulate and deliver.
Friends of the kind that we have become happen only once if a lifetime . . . if you are lucky. I have been graced with it happening to me twice. The first time, it was in the middle of a war. My shipmate and I became so familiar that we didn’t have to say words or express ideas. The simple act of a raised eyebrow or a shrug of a shoulder spoke volumes and communicated accurately and adequately. And so it is with me and Charlie. I suspect that this might be the first time experience with this kind of friendship for Charlie. Regardless, I am the one that walks away with the wealth of friendship and experience.

Ernest Hemingway; A Predictable Death
I don't know or understand why anybody would consider suicide, let alone commit it. Hemingway's life and suicide is an exception that I do understand.
Looking at his life in it's entirety, it becomes obvious that he had lived an erethic existence. Erethism as I understand it, is defined as "the abnormal reaction to normal stimuli." Many dictionaries will change this definition slightly but they all boil down to the same basic idea.
I suspect that he acquired this personality trait at an early age and was not helped out of this quagmire existence by either of his parents. His resentment of women and affection to other men that mirrored his propensities were molded by both of his parents, simultaneously, with the extreme efficiency that only a family environment can produce.
The first brash incident of his life was the adventure in the Ambulance Service of the Red Cross during World War I. The idea of proving his manhood in the face of the grim reaper with every breath was the ultimate attempt at suicide that was evaded by a miraculous stroke of luck. He didn't suffer two bullet holes in his legs but a falanx of artillery shrapnel that essentially put his legs into the jeopardy of amputation. This life changing injury came only after about a month on the front lines and in the heat of a battle that would effect his entire existence, including his relationships with the women that he married. He now understood that he was not bullet proof and true to his pattern of erethic behavior, he reflected on his experience but in the end he would ignore it for his entire life.
The remainder of Mr. Hemingway's life was essentially his attempt to recreate his WWI experience with a shuffling of the sequence of events. In Paris he was bored so he traveled to Pamplona, Spain to run with the bulls. In Spain, during the Civil War, he flirted with combat by reporting it to the world in print and film. In Cuba, he mixed pleasure with adventure by function on the water for the OSS to gather intelligence on any German U-boat activity. He returned to France just in time to join the Allies in the march into Paris. Again, flirting with death at every mile. In this same period he dealt with the KGB (who he was familiar with from the Spanish Civil War) with limited success that was on purpose, I suspect. In Africa, he dealt death to predator wild-life and was again almost killed in two different aircraft accidents. In the end, he became paranoid with good reason. He knew that the US government was aware that he was friends with Fidel Castro, that he had had a detailed relationship with the KGB of the USSR and the McCarthy Hearings had done him no service. This in combination with the fact that he had Diabetes (which has no identified cause and no Rx cure) that brought him to the Mayo Clinic for electro-shock treatments and, to make a bad situation worse, he had writer's block and considered himself a failure. The only solution that would occur to him was the same fate that took his father . . . suicide.
This entire life experience can be explained by the introduction of mercury in the form of mercury amalgams in his teeth, vaccines and other minor exposures. Also, the probability of being exposed to lead in paints, medications and other minor exposures would explain the life long erethism.
The one factor that I can not produce evidence of, would be the introduction of mercury into his personal environment. Medical and Dental records would show this evidence. This in combination with any lead involvement would, without question, produce an erethism that could not be satisfied by divorce, alcohol, drugs or even war. Mr. Hemingway's success is, without doubt, a direct consequence of his erethic behavior in all circumstances and stages of life.
His exposure to mercury can be proven by the exhumation of his remains in Ketchum, Idaho. The lead burden of his body should also be present in his coffin because neither mercury or lead will disappear . . . ever.
The finding of mercury and probably lead does not prove that this caused his erratic lifestyle but it is profound evidence that both metals (and any other heavy metal that happens to be in his casket) had an influencing effect on his life, diseases and suicide.
I have been chastised by this suggestion because the Hemingway family receives an enormous royalty from his works and the robust legends of his life. Not only his family benefits but other subordinate incomes are generated by his history and the places where he lived.
This is not a question that will be answered by me or anybody like me. It will have to be dealt with by a family member that throws caution to the wind and demands answers and a stop to the aberrant application of suicide as a solution to difficult diseases or times.

Low Dose Naltrexone
Low Dose Naltrexone - Log -
I have been taking Low Dose Naltrexone 3 mg caps since November (15). I found out about it on a BlogTalkRadio show titled The Mary Bradley Show
This was a little known, off label use, drug that seems to have multiple uses at low doses and a specific use at 50 mg.
I just asked the VA to write a Rx for 4.5 mg for a year for me and they did, without hesitation. I was very surprised because I usually have to beg and scream to get anything that I request from them. It seems that if they suggest it, no problem, but if the patient requests it, they have to justify it a dozen ways to Sunday and then it's only a maybe.
Regardless, the primary care told me to keep a log and this I thought would be more appropriate since the medication needs to get much more attention from doctors and patients. . . . So . . .
Entry 1
Since starting the medication at 3 mg last November 2009, I have found no negative effects to this point. Remembering to take it at bedtime was a problem until I left the supply in the bathroom so that it was the last thing I see before going to bed. After taking it I lay the bottle on it's side as a message to myself that I have taken it for the night. In the morning I return it to the upright position for the new day's routing.
On the positive side . . . I have found that I don't arise as frequently in the middle of the night to urinate. At worst, I was arising almost a dozen times every night. Now I arise a maximum of 5 times, and that's a bad night.
Additionally, my wife, son, daughter in law and grand daughter all had the flu or cold at about the same time . . . I never got sick. This was surprising to me because I have an autoimmune condition and would expect to be the most vulnerable. Obviously, I can't give LDN the credit for avoiding the flu but I thought it worth mentioning because it was my observation.
One observation should be noted and it may or may not be associated with LDN. I have found myself nodding off when stationary. This has never happened before and it only started after Christmas 2009. It could be nothing, it could be a side effect of high blood pressure medication or it could be my adapting to the LDN and the effects of the high blood pressure medication.
I mentioned it to my primary care and she said that it was probably the high blood pressure medication. Regardless the cause, I find it very pleasant and if I could get away with it, I might want to invoke the nodding off when my wife is rumbling on about nothing important or when my granddaughter gets over active.

Waterbury, Connecticut
I contacted the Waterbury Police Dept, Detective Division today 9/5/2009 @ 1140. The reason that I called is because I had watched a story on 20/20 about a serial rapest (possible murderer) who lived in Waterbury. From all accounts, including his life long friends and neighbors, he was the poster example of a great guy and good neighbor.
I was trying to plant the seed of an idea so that when they ran into a violent or sexual offender (Erethic or Exotomania), they would have the information base to pursue an organic cause rather then a ghost of reasoning. This, in-order to prevent crime rather than perpetually capture and punish perpetrators.
The basic idea that I tried to convey was that some homes, offices and business are permanently contaminated with mercury. This is a stretch. However, since Danbury, Ct. is only 6 miles away to the southwest, I think that many of the Hat makers may have lived in the Waterbury area and brought their mercury home with them. This idea could be validated by an inventory of Waterbury citizens, in the past 100 years, who have suffered with the "Danbury Shakes" or autoimmune conditions.
I suspect that I failed because the Detective that I spoke with was efficiently curt and impatient while he was on the phone with me. The call only lasted about 4 minutes but it seemed that this detective was consumed with a sense of self-importance and could not be bothered with the abstract idea that could turn out to be an organic cause of such violent crime.

Medical Marshal Law
This kind of law was only considered in Germany in the 20's and 30's and the old USSR under either Stalin or Lenin. W.T.F. gives or takes away?

To the White House
The way you have presented Health Care is not appropriate. You actually have two separate issues. 1) how to pay for services and 2) controlling disease. Once you stop thinking of disease or conditions as a mystical event, you will understand that, like fire, certain elements must exist before a person's health can be compromised. Once you have mastered this concept, the facilities to pay for services will be easier to muster.
If you would like more information on this idea, contact Congresswoman Niki Tsongas and ask her for a copy of the book "Illness Defined; The Theorem.
You have the correct direction, you just have to break the journey down to a more manageable path. The only way to eat this elephant is one bite at a time.
