Dear Friends:
    I don't always understand Hale. For example, in the  case of Blessed
Thistle, he goes into great detail about the useful attributes  of this herb, says
it is virtually nontoxic with no pediatric concerns  reported.......and then
gives it an L3 rating.
    What do you all think?
    warmly,
