Michelle is going to be pissed

Heavy red meat consumption probably increases your risk for other things, like colon cancer. It would be a good idea to give it up.

Also, meat is murder.

Atkins doesn't push vegetables, though. Eating sausages dipped in butter isn't a good time for a long time.

I often have fresh mozzarella and smoked salmon for lunch.

Nutritionists are always saying that to each other, so it must be true. Just like how margarine prevented hardening of the arteries, until they found out about trans fat. Oops.

Tying yourself into knots following advice isn't going to make you live forever, dude.

I see you identify deeply with pigs. ;)

As the old saying goes, if God hadn't meant us to eat animals, he wouldn't have made them out of meat.

I have both of those books; good stuff. This is good too:

At one meeting, when they finally figured out why it wouldn't focus, one of the designers stepped out into the hallway and vomited.

in the song "The reluctant cannibal" produced the line

"if God had meant us not to eat people, he wouldn't have made us of meat"

I think you are misquoting ...

From an evolutionary point of view, humans are descended from plant eaters, but show signs of a recent adaption to an omnivorous diet. Our relatively short gut reflects the fact that we are descended from a bunch of apes who ate high calorie plant food - fruit and tubers rather than roots and leaves - and evolutionary biologists suggest that we needed to add some meat to t he diet to feed our over-sized and calorie-hungry brain.

Precisely what God had in mind when he allowed our ancestors to evolve into the niche they exploited so successfully s hunter-gatherers is currently a matter for speculation.

With modern technology and agriculture, we can survive as vegetarians witho ut too much trouble. Being vegan is tricky.

h covered a wider range of conditions.

much the same time - and published them (which I never did). He used IR ab sorbtion to track the NOBr concentration in the gas phase, where I used nea r-UV absorgtion, and he didn't cover quite as wide a range of concentration or temperature as I did.

er than English, so even the more squishy sciences do do a certain amount o f replication.

e article was about how much of that is published. An how if the redo get' s different results from the original it was less likely to be submitted... well it depended on the seniority of the PI.

More - I suspect - on the perceived quality of the redo. If you don't trust the graduate student's work, you aren't likely to publish it.

If it looks good, taking down a classic paper is a royal route to fame and fortune. Einstein is famous in large part because he superseded Newton - no t that there was anything wrong with Newton's work - which is to say Tycho Brahe's observations ....

Not understanding why you get reviled in Usenet can be indicative of real p roblems.

Your chances of getting into office are mercifully small. Whatever got Garf ield elected seems to have failed to get passed on to you. No great surpris e there - Garfield was born in 1831 so you are probably five generations do wn the track - and 2^5 is 32 so you've got about 3% of your genes in common with him.

Since Garfield was shot by a deranged political office seeker, it's unlikel y that his genome included any particularly assassination-worthy components .

No. NO! Murder is about HUMANS.

Meat is about KILLING, but NOT murder.

Now, IF God is going to condemn us for killing even animals, THEN we are all doomed. You kill critters when you drive your car.

There goes Bill, looking into a mirror again.

As long as my mistakes don't kill/maim someone..

I don't have any problem understanding why you revile me - your problem is not understanding that it's you that has the problem.

You are supposed to finish a statement like that with "hic".

The term i heard was "coffin nails".

^^^^^^^^^^^ ITYM so tasty.

Then it would have been "Jjjusht had Prime Rib at Charleshton plush t-t-two boll's o wine"
