I cannot force another mind to heal.
I can try to aid the self healing of minds.

Opinion
Why Does Donald Trump Keep Dissing Jews?
The answer is a verdict on his unconventional, ungenerous presidency.
"Some
of this is Steve Bannon and his ilk. Their idea of nationalism is
chilly to the recognition of subgroups, including Jewish Americans.
Some
of it boils down to an absent professionalism. Trump isn’t matching the
respectful choreography of other presidents because there’s no one in
his inner circle familiar with the dance. Kushner, Bannon, Stephen
Miller and Reince Priebus are all new to this kind and level of work.
They lack institutional memory, along with any awareness of how easily
those blind spots become insensitivity.
I
can’t know definitively how Trump feels about Jews or gays or a whole
lot else. But I can see clearly his sloppiness and self-absorption, and
they’re cause enough for alarm."
The headline editor did not read the article or the thought needed more words than the format allows.

Radiofrequency Denervation Offers No Benefits for Back Pain
A medical procedure offered no advantages over exercise alone for easing low back pain.There is a benefit for the people who apply the Denervation.

Laugh and the World Laughs With You. Type ‘Ha,’ Not So Much.
Texting and email have inexorably changed the way we communicate laughter, from a simple LOL and its variations to a mischievous mwahahaha.I take Jessica Bennett's point.
I am not slain.
The mwahahaha is the triumphant laugh of the evil conqueror on closing a terminal trap.
I need "broad band" communication.
Sooner is better. As soon as you can is best.
