One SHORT post per day - help make CHIROPRACTIC HISTORY...

PREGNANT WOMEN: Please forward this email to your chiropractor.

MDs are closing birth canals and gruesomely manipulating most babies'
spines. I want DCs to take action to stop this obvious crime. It's easy to
OPEN your birth canal - just roll onto your side - be forewarned - some MDs
will roll you back to semisitting - close your birth canal! - as your baby
comes out! Email me for details.

Nancy,

No apology necessary. There is nothing "flakey" about being extremely busy.

TO SAVE TIME - see the very end of this post...

Six babies per DAY are dying from gruesome TRACTION spinal manipulation by
MD-obstetricians.

See again: Babies vacuumed to death (also: MRI sex - again)
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/chiro-list/message/2095

To be sure, sometimes traction spinal manipulation (pulling with forceps
and/or vacuum) can save a tiny life...

But - and this is my PRIORITY question: WHY are we letting MDs deliver
babies with birth canals closed up to 30% - and why are we letting MDs
perform traction spinal manipulation with birth canals senselessly closed up
to 30%?!

Please ask all chiropractic entities/organizations you can think of...

Please ask all MEDICAL entities/organizations you can think of...

It wouldn't hurt to mention that MDs are also PUSHING on tiny spines with
birth canals closed up to 30% - or rather - MDs are forcing UTERI to push
with birth canals closed - and when the going gets rough - MDs chemically
whip uteri to contract VIOLENTLY - with oxytocin and/or Cytotec - with birth
canals closed up to 30%!

Nancy, surely one short post per day is doable...

Maybe you could start with an email to Association for the History of
Chiropractic/AHC officers (email addresses listed below) simply asking them
if they will forward your post to their fellow AHC officer, Virginia Medical
Board Member Jerry Willis, DC?

NOTE: For my first post to Jerry Willis, DC (via the Virginia Medical
Board)...

(!)

Virginia Medical Board Exec. Dir. William Harp, MD wrote back (automated
response?) and said I had to name an individual MD...

So I named an individual MD...

See MD birth crime: Gastaldo names individual MD...
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/chiro-list/message/2082

(I am in favor of pardons in advance for MDs. MDs are just academic prime
cuts forced through this culture's most powerful mental meatgrinder -
medical school.)

MAYBE the Virgina Medical Board is doing what I asked..

But I suspect not - the MD spinal manipulation crime is huge and like the
rest of us MDs are loathe to admit mistakes. I have received no further
response from them...

Nancy, in spite of the fact that I myself am sending this to AHC officers (I
just now spoke with AHC Pres. Dr. Arthur Lensgraf; see PS1)...inspite of the
fact that I am archiving this post for global access (
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/chiro-list/message/2098)

I am still hoping you too will ask AHC officers if they will join you (and
me) in asking their fellow AHC officer Jerry Willis, DC to simply ask the
Virginia Medical Board (of which he is a member) to simply ask MDs to stop
closing birth canals.

Please copy me when you do. (Again, see TO SAVE TIME at the very end of
this post.)

Remember Nancy: It's sort of a CHIROPRACTIC EMERGENCY: Six babies per DAY
are dying...and MDs are lying...as MDs close birth canals and gruesomely
manipulate most babies' spines.

Help make CHIROPRACTIC HISTORY Nancy: Help save tiny lives and tiny limbs -
help PREVENT more vertebral subluxations than DCs will ever be able to
adjust by hand.

Sincerely,

Todd

Dr. Gastaldo


PS1 WAIT A MINUTE! HOLD THE PHONE!

I still want you to email the AHC officers Nancy - but check *this* out!

On a lark, I just telephoned Arthur Lensgraf, DC, AHC Pres... Arthur did
not remember any email from me. He said he often doesn't open email if he
doesn't recognize the sender. I noted that MDs are closing birth canals.
He seemed genuinely surprised and asked me to send an email. He asked me
what the title would be so he would know not to delete it. Since I was
writing "One SHORT post per day" to you - I gave that title to him... I
will be sending this post to everyone - and posting it for global access...

Arthur said that if I sent him hard copy he would give a copy to all AHC
board members when they convene for their mid-year meeting in Nashville in
three weeks.

Arthur, CHIROPRACTIC EMERGENCY! Six babies per day are DYING in part due to
gruesome spinal manipulation by MDs

Please IMMEDIATELY forward this to Jerry Willis, DC and simply ask him to
ask the Virginia Medical Board (of which he is a member) to simply ask MDs
to stop closing birth canals.

Maybe Jerry will be able to report in three weeks (at your AHC meeting in
Nashville) that he has made CHIROPRACTIC HISTORY in Virginia by stopping the
gruesome spinal manipulation of the most prolific spinal manipulators -
MD-obstetricians.

AHC officers could (at that meeting) resolve to make similar CHIROPRACTIC
HISTORY worldwide!

Again, Nancy, I still want you to email the AHC officers just so I'm not the
only one encouraging them to contact Jerry and take action themselves...

PS3 Nancy, you quoted back the quote about DD that I sent...

In a message dated 8/9/03 11:42:10 PM, writes:

Here (again) is Wardwell [1992] quoting Terrett [1986] regarding the

censorship of

Dr. DD Palmer...


"All copies [of DD's The Chiropractor's Adjuster (1910)] were quickly
bought

up and destroyed. You could not get a copy anyplace at any price. In
fact,

you could not find a copy for 'love or money.' The leaders of the

profession did not want the world to know anything about the teachings
of

old Dr. Daniel D. Palmer...The early leaders then greatly distorted
their

founder's science, philosophy and vision for chiropractic..." [Wardwell

You remarked...


Todd;
Your letters contain a lot of information so some of it goes right by me.
I
read the definition of chiropractic in Dorland's when I first got mail
from
you. I thought it was fine but no, I do not think it is the same as D.D.'s
basic hypothesis and I was uncomfortable saying so because I don't know
you and
didn't want to offend but I have offended you anyway by being glib. I
believe
his hypothesis is in the beginning of The Adjuster. I'm going to the
office
tomorrow and will write a longer more thoughtful letter when I reread The
Adjuster. I apologize for these scribbled notes.
Nancy


Again Nancy, no apology necessary.

I'm glad you think the Dorland's definition of chiropractic is fine.

Perhaps you believe DD's fundamental chiropractic is "tone" - as in the
statement on DD's title page: "Founded on Tone." (?)

In any future dictionary definitions of chiropractic, I personally would
like to see explicit mention of DD's notion that the body is NOT controlled
by the nervous system but rather by WHAT IRRITATES the nervous system -
internal or external. DD's diagnostic "trick" - that Innate forwards the
same impulses in health and disease - should perhaps also be mentioned. It
is central to DD's notion of ASSUMING healthy impulses are being sent by
Innate - which - conveniently - makes it the doctor's job to look for
mech/chem/psychic irritants in the internal or external environments when
someone is sick.

I sent a copy of the 1988 Dorland's Illustrated Medical Dictionary to the
late WD Harper before he died - and he was elated. He said, "You must have
had help." I said, "I *did* - you and Anything Can Cause Anything - and the
1966 ACA Commission for the Standards of Chiropractic Principles," or words
to that effect.

Regarding whether the Dorland's definition is the same as DD's basic
hypothesis... I'm looking forward to your "more thoughtful letter." (!)

Nancy, I've asked you befo Doesn't it seem odd to you that NO ONE (not
AHC not ACA not ICA - NO ONE) is discussing the fact that - at my request -
Dorland's made (what *I* believe to be) DD's fundamental chiropractic
hypothesis the definition of chiropractic?

At the very least they could take pot shots at Dorland's new/old definition
of chiropractic!

Some CHIROPRACTIC HISTORY...

In 1999, ACA unsuccessfully/quietly tried to CENSOR DD's fundamental
chiropractic hypothesis from Dorland's - saying that Dorland's had written
to ACA for input. ACA "forgot" to mention that AT MY REQUEST Dorland's
wrote to ACA and about 12 other chiro organizations/entities YEARS
previously - requesting definition input. I had asked Dorland's to do this
because *no one responded* when I asked for such input before the first
publication of "my" definition in Dorland's in 1988 - and because I wanted
to see some input from the profession before Dorland's published "my"
definition again in 1994. (NOTE: I got "my" definition from Dr. DD Palmer
via WD Harper's Anything Can Cause Anything and ACA's Highest Obligation -
the latter is STILL imbedded in ACA's Master Plan!)

I have NO problem with censorship attempts as long as they are made *in the
open* - with plenty of public discussion. It was ACA's failure to act on my
early 90s suggestion of a chiropractic definition consensus conference that
(most recently) persuaded Dorland's Chief Lexicographer Anderson to publish
"my" definition again in a third edition of Dorland's (2000). Initially
Anderson was resistant because "ACA is the largest chiropractic association"
(or words to that effect) but I simply pointed out to him that ACA was STILL
failing to hold/co-sponsor a chiropractic definition consensus conference -
which - again - was the reason he originally wrote to 13 chiropractic
entities/organizations at my request.

BEWA ACA IS TRYING TO GET CHIROS TO JUMP INTO THE LATE ED MAURER'S
NEUROMUSCULOSKELETAL BOX! (Remember the "failed" merger between ACA and
ICA? I don't think it was a complete failure.

Neuromusculoskeletal chiropractic is not all that far away from
BJ-"straight" spinal cultism - the latest manifestation of which is
Rondberg's current (Manzullo?) bill before Congress...

PS4 BJ-"straight" spinal cultism - and neuromusculoskeletal chiropractic -
have "triumphed" in California...

I recently wrote to "Dr. Enzyme," Anthony Cichoke, DC (pronounced
she-CO-ki)...

"Chiropractic Education...include[s]...OBSTETRICS..."
--American Chiropractic Association/ACA Chairman James Edwards, DC and
Cynthia Vaughn, DC
http://www.jamesedwards.com/educate.htm (emphasis added)

"Obstetrics is the art of midwifery...If the accoucheur is a Chiropractor,
he can adjust...thereby preventing disease."
--Dr. DD Palmer, Founder of Chiropractic [1910:789]

Chiropractic physicians don't *need* to attend births - don't need to
practice
obstetrics or midwifery - to adjust to prevent
disease!



Dr. Cichoke,

There is a strike against me...by a politically powerful person...

In the interest of full disclosure, I think you should know about it.

I was sued for libel by former Calif. Republican Party Chairman Attorney
Michael Schroeder (who I believe is in bed with the MD-obstetricians; see
below).

I couldn't afford to go to Calif. to defend the lawsuit; so I spent $2,000
plus dollars challenging jurisdiction in an unsuccessful attempt to get it
moved to Oregon.

In my absence, the judge lined through Schroeder's one million dollar
petition and awarded him a default judgement of $25,000.

That default judgement still stands. It is a legal judgement against me -
albeit an unfair one.

Or so I say...

Just the same - beware...

SOME HISTORY...

In the late 80s, before he became the Calif. Republican Party Chair,
Attorney Schroeder, as attorney for the Calif. Chiropractic Association,
wrote a Calif. chiropractic regulation known as "Rule 302."

(Thanks to "chiropractic" Attorney Schroeder's Rule 302 - MDs can
*gruesomely* manipulate most babies'
spines at birth and sometimes sever spinal nerves - and California DCs can't
even
sever umbilical cords!)

Attorney Schroeder got the Calif. Chiro. Board to adopt his Rule 302.

In one swell foop, California DCs - who attended thousands of births - were
suddenly prohibited
from so much as severing umbilical cords. (!)

10 MD-obstetricians sued the Calif Chiro. Bd (!)...

Schroeder was selected as the Calif. Chiropractic Board's attorney...

The MD-obstetricians "lost the case" as Schroeder reportedly earned hundreds
of thousands in DC licensing fees in the process...

But I say the MD-obstetricians did NOT lose (!) - they got exactly what they
wanted - they got Schroeder's Rule 302
*judicially rubberstamped*. (!)

Former law professor David Prescott later publicly opined that Schroeder's
Rule 302
UNLAWFULLY restricted the chiropractic scope of practice in California.

See Homebirth - Sonoma County can save money - maybe Dr. Dubin will help?
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/chiro-list/message/1844

If *Prescott* was/is right - if Schroeder's Rule 302 "unlawfully" restricts
the chiropractic scope - then *I* was right in my "libel" - i.e. - Schroeder
DID bilk the
chiropractic profession out of hundreds of thousands in DC licensing fees
(or
however many thousands he "earned").

REGARDLESS though whether Prescott (or I) am right - WHY is "chiropractic"
attorney
Schroeder failing to go after the MD-obstetricians for closing birth canals
and
gruesomely manipulating most babies' spines at birth?

KEY POINT Back when I was still California-licensed - a man calling himself
Schroeder -
attorney for the Calif. Chiro Board - told me by telephone that it was
outside
my scope of practice to tell pregnant women about what MDs were doing -
which
is why I let my Calif. license go inactive...

One needs neither license nor degree to expose obvious lies and bogus
research in the medical literature.

"Chiropractic" attorney Schroeder *has* his default judgement against me -
WHY isn't he going after the
MD-obstetricians who ostensibly "attacked" his Rule 302?

Chiros are missing a GOLDEN opportunity to save tiny lives and tiny limbs
and PREVENT more vertebral subluxations than DCs will ever be able to adjust
by hand.

END Gastaldo's post to Dr. Cichoke, slightly edited...

PS5 Nancy, I noted at the very end of one of the posts I sent that
Dorland's Chief Lexicographer Douglas Anderson at my request also
changed Dorland's definition of "doctor" to include graduates of
chiropractic colleges.

Anderson took the opportunity to include other professionals besides MDs, as
in, "doctor...one who has received a degree from a college of medicine,
osteopathy, chiropractic, optometry, podiatry, pharmacy, dentistry, or
veterinary medicine, licensed to practice by a state."

Of course, being
unlicensed by choice, I sort of disagree with the "licensed to practice by a
state" part of this new Dorland's definition
of "doctor." : )

Again, the KEY POINT from PS4: Back when I was still California-licensed -
a man calling himself Schroeder -
attorney for the Calif. Chiro Board - told me by telephone that it was
outside
my scope of practice to tell pregnant women about what MDs were doing -
which
is why I let my Calif. license go inactive...

One needs neither license nor degree to expose obvious lies and bogus
research in the medical literature.

"Chiropractic" attorney Schroeder *has* his default judgement against me -
WHY isn't he going after the
MD-obstetricians who ostensibly "attacked" his Rule 302?
Why aren't the chiropractic trade unions working to stop MDs from closing
birth canals?

Why aren't they working to stop the massive MD spinal manipulation crime?


Nancy, I made to decision to post this response publicly because I *may*
soon be censored from posting to Yahoo...
