First I would like to say, many of these I wrote 20 years ago, and they're not all in chronological order, and also I would like to apologize to anyone I have offended, through a continuation of my studies I have found that there is no such thing as lazy, and that we are all slaves to our metabolisms, hormones, and emotions, as an evolutionarily domesticated species, much like livestock,which is forced, we are no longer subject to natural selection, (survival of the fittest), the only thing our physical being must fear is famine, so in order to store fuel in case of this occurrence, our genetic structure, (without selective breeding), tends more and more towards an endomorphic metabolism as every specimen reproduces, for in a time of famine the strong shall perish, and those with extra fuel, (excess adipose tissue), shall survive! one look around at the supermarket, and it is apparent there are a lot of survivors, the answers are obvious, but with 84% of the population obese, I realize my words are falling on deaf ears, same said is the cause of our world economic problem, for being slaves to such a metabolism will only allow them to burn what fuel is absolutely necessary! not productive to say the least, Ed

It was intentional several years ago, I wont extrapolate, but I go for DBS in a few months, and am not changing it now, Ed
