Resorting to name calling is pretty typical for you. That and being a law breaker who undermines the stated value of your beloved organization's "code."

In the AMA forum, a user indicates knowledge of a post I made coming from a "PA IP address."

As he's not an Admin on RCU, how is it that he's got access to RCU IP log data? Who's providing that to...

Please show me where in the AMA code it says that it does not apply everywhere? Oh, that's right. It isn't there. Just like the insurance "requirement" you tout.

You noted there was no safety line. AMA's beloved "code" which that member signed an oath to obey, requires a safety line. There's no waiver in AMA's "code" that it only applies in the US. So despite...
