Heath, by the way, there is such a thing as a singular sclerosis. A sclerosis in this case is a central nervous system lesion caused by immune over activity. When you get your first one, it's called clinically isolated syndrome. About half of people with CIS have one sclerotic incident and never again. The other half have another incident and have MS.

Speak entirely about myself here, but sometimes national politics can be an escape because I can shout as loud and angry as I want behind a pseudonym. But local politics, they can see me, they know my name, they know where I live. And that’s terrifying.
