Taylor, As SA has suggested, you need to read the postings in the MLC Archives. You will have ample information at your disposal to help you better understand MLC.
MLC is a part of our current generation of baby boomers. You see, long ago, people didn't live much beyond 40/50, so there wasn't much discussion about mlc and also if people were aware that something was not quite right, they didn't discuss w/others, i.e., they turned a blind eye to it.
In the last several decades, people are living longer, communication about such things is more open and jokes are being made by many, both in person, on the radio and TV about it. MLC used to be considered the gold chains around the man's neck and the bright red convertible, etc. No one looked closer at it until the 70's/80's.
I do think that as the next generation comes along, there will be even more information available and just maybe a pill or something for those who feel the urge to return to Oz. Time will tell on how the next generation handles it.
Utilize the resources that are available here. They are all at your fingertips.
Sit quietly, the answers will reveal themselves when you least expect them to. The past is gone, the present is a gift and you need to focus on today, allow the future to reveal itself when it is ready.
