Medical question
Lynne or Ken or whatever internet moniker that this individual uses are quite good at making himself/herself believable by presenting facts mixing with factoids. Like Steve said, a quick read of past postings will tell one whether to 'trust' this individual. In google, just click the show options and choose find messages by this author. "Lynne" had claimed of identify theft but all postings under her name and "Ken" have the same style. It's pretty amazing that this troll have continued to fool many people even rec.aviation regulars. On the other hand, some people may find trolls amusing and don't mind participating in some web jousting. The danger is that this may add to the troll 'credibility'. Some of the things that this troll had posted were harmless (like the information on blood pressure) but if unsuspecting students/pilots believe that "Lynn" was an M.D., CFI, ATP pilot (for various arilines), DE, FAA weather briefer etc..and follow some of his/her dubious advices like tossing away the checklist or let her signoff their writtent test application etc., it can be dangerous.
