Oh yeah. Lots of stories personally, and a whole bunch more from the old man. Maybe it's started to change over the last couple of years (I hope so), but I've yet to see any evidence of it... I've got about 18-24 mo. before my flow, but if I can go to UA instead that's a no-brainer for me. Thinking about B6 as well...
