What disturbs me is that now Morgellons sufferers are going to point to the Great Lakes as some kind of evidence to support their disease/perceived condition.

Do you believe Morgellons is a real thing, and that's what disturbs you, or do you believe it's not a real thing, and the fact that people can become so obsessed with and certain of a phenomenon that is entirely in their own heads is what disturbs you? Or maybe it's just a creepy idea even if it's not real and that sqwuicks you out.

I like to read about it, it interests me, but I think disturbs me on a level too.
