Not to pick on you, but if you haven't experienced a disease first-hand, just reading up on it won't completely educate you on it--knowledge comes from both reading and hands-on experience IMHO. I think your idea is a good one, though, but perhaps it should be a thread left to a mod/admin or someone with a lot of experience with reptiles. I also agree with those here who think that diagnostics/treatments should be left to the vets. A list of symptoms of a certain disease, sure. A recommendation to take your animal to the vet if it is experiencing many of the symptoms for a certain disease, absolutely.
