THIS is outrageous and scary! RFK making his own journal that appears to be associated with a medical society.There is no such thing as the Academy of Public Health! They can use this to make false claims in medicine and science, including for vaccines. These are not peer reviewed nor scientific!

Question for all you blueskyers (is that the equivalent of tweeps?). Can someone point me to a book that has a brooding non-male protagonist. Brooding heros tend to be my favorite to read about - think Batman or Edmond Dantes - but thinking about it, I'm wondering if only men are written this way.
