Exclamation Results as of 03/16

Here are the current results so everyone knows where we stand:

1. Type: Unknown - 1 (TvBabe)

2. Diabetes: In the Life of - 3.5 (Penny, Buzzborne, Jeggerman31, Heather Wenzel)

3. Inject This! - 5.5 (camjen1, Cyborg, Psilocybin, tatermom, Laura71, liz32)

4. Highs and Lows: The Rollercoaster of Diabetes - 4.38 (Lynne1, Sydneya, Buzzborne, Gettingby, am1977)

5. Don't Let BIG SUGAR Stick it to you - .20 (Archimeech)

6. Everybody has a Killer in their Family...Diabetes... - .20 (Archimeech)

7. But you take Insulin, Aren't you already Cured? - .20 (Archimeech)

8. Legalized Drug Addicts (SlugLine: And their fight against the big medical
Pusher Man.)
- .20 (Archimeech)

9. SugarFly - .20 (Archimeech)

10. The Sweet Life: Surviving and Thriving with Diabetes - 1.88 (Koblenz, Gettingby, tatermom, am1977)

11. The Sweet Life: How I learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Needle. - .50 (Koblenz)

12. Discovering Diabetes - 2.33 (Dewey, Tony, Gettingby)

We have Inject This! winning with a 5.5, Lynne1's Suggestion Highs and Lows: The Rollercoaster of Diabetes is close behind with a 4.38 Keep up the voting everyone.

I have noticed that a few of you have been "STUCK" or have suggested multiple names. I corrected this with splitting the votes. (I.E. - Gettingby liked #4, #10 & #12. I split Gettingby's 1 vote by 3 which equals .33 / So .33 was added to each.)

Yes indeed Doetsch, you have created a monster.
There are several I'd like to vote for BUT I've had a Title
running around in my head since you started this Project.
So I submit:

**Stop This Disease, I Wanna Get Off.**

I feel better. Thanks.

You could make it a homage to Superfly one of the original blackspoiltation/docudrama cult classics. I just love the soundtrack and would love to see some Curtis Mayfield make it back to the screen.

Or you could even get some 70's graphics and call it:

SugarFly
Hey, Meech!! I love your enthusiasm!! Just let them keep coming.

hello I am pebbles in this forum I think that people need to know more about living as adults with complications of diabetes like ex: polyneuropathy, musculoskeletal problems living with pain from this diabetes complications that are not mentioned often and alot of diabetics have this problems at a youg age 30's 40's also looking into the truth about man made insulins telling the truth about them you should look into consulting www.iddtinternational.org pharmaceutical industries only care about money not about the diabetic population analogue insulins have a potential of carcinogenic complications not good its time they tell the truth it should not be exceptable to diabetics having by no choice to take insulin everyday i do hope you look into this and bringing this to the forfront of your documentry I have tried myself to call the media here in canada on the truth about analogue insulins carcinogenic"cancer causing agents" with the pharmaceutical companies to tell the truth about it "everybody in the industry are scared to speak out or telling the truth about it you can find out more about this subject at www.iddtinternational.org it is time the diabetic population know the truth about this the pharmaceutical companies are getting away with this. The only way to stop this from happening is for diabetics to know the truth and to fight for there rights and have long term study on any new insulins put on the market. best of luck hope to see your documentry pebbles!
