Why I hate tweakers
You might have a couple guesses as to why I hate tweakers but you would probably be wrong. I hate them because they screwed up cold medicine for everybody else.
Because Pseudoephedrine is used to make meth, it has been removed from all OTC cold/flu/allergy remedies. It has been replaced by Phenylephrine which is just as good except for the fact that it doesn't work at all. In fact, OTC cold medicines are so restricted that every label you read looks identical. The active ingredients in all of them are Acetaminophen (pain reliever/fever reducer), Dextromethorphan (cough suppressant), Phenylephrine (decongestant), and Guaifenesin (expectorant). I dare you to find one that is different! The only nice thing about it is, since there is no substantive differences from one brand to the next, you are free to let your artistic side take over and make your selection based on which box has the prettiest colors.
Thanks a bunch tweakers!

You should buy the "Tweakers suck" t shirt. By the way, why is it that only you and I are on the new MOAT via Google? Have the others not made the transition yet?

Niki had some difficulty making the transition and hasn't gotten back to is because she's sick and doesn't feel up to doing anything but watch TV. Dan hasn't commented in a while. I don't know what his problem is.

Yeah, it only took me a week to make the change. I blame it all on Lotus Notes, it's pretty much the root of all evil.

Dan! Your back! I agree about Notes. I had to use it at Apria and it sucked.
