   * I love this chart.  When I first saw it in the presentation on the link from the legacy site, it gave me a sense of the relative number of cohort members with various conditions, and gave me some documented evidence I could quote to friends with MP-treatable conditions.  The resolution of this chart on this site is much better than what I was originally able to see (from a photo showing the powerpoint in the background).  Even being able to read only the RA results clearly at that earlier time, it was helpful.  Shown clearly, I love it even more.  My one suggestion is that the link to this study, in Recovery Rate in the main Statistics article, is described only as methodology.  I was hoping to see the results, and seeing no link to results, I hit the methodology link just in case.  I'd like to see the link described as results AND methodology not just methodology, to make the info easier to find. -//Dody 2009/03/08//    * I love this chart.  When I first saw it in the presentation on the link from the legacy site, it gave me a sense of the relative number of cohort members with various conditions, and gave me some documented evidence I could quote to friends with MP-treatable conditions.  The resolution of this chart on this site is much better than what I was originally able to see (from a photo showing the powerpoint in the background).  Even being able to read only the RA results clearly at that earlier time, it was helpful.  Shown clearly, I love it even more.  My one suggestion is that the link to this study, in Recovery Rate in the main Statistics article, is described only as methodology.  I was hoping to see the results, and seeing no link to results, I hit the methodology link just in case.  I'd like to see the link described as results AND methodology not just methodology, to make the info easier to find. -//Dody 2009/03/08//
