	Now why should I flame anybody for having an adverse drug interaction.
Any given drug will cause adverse effects in a certain number of people, and
ALL drugs will cause adverse effects if the dosage is made large enough. It
happens and that's just pharmacolology.  Why should I mind?  Why bother to
bring up my name in this in the first place?
