Thank you so much for organizing the event. I had a terrible week chasing down sploggers who whole blog posts from both of my sites and I have yet to succeed with getting my content removed from the last two . As soon as I get caught up with work, the comments on both blogs and I have published new posts I will visit every blogger who contributed. I really appreciated know that I'm not alone in my misery and that others have good ideas for ways and means of coping with fibromyalgia to share too.
