    Health Urban Myths

    No hunck...cousins did, mates did - my marble didn't drop. We got a lot of R&R grunts down here though. An interesting fact hunck: Me and a mate did a bit of dealing in our youth and we'd buy these sticks. They came in compressed blocks of 40 or so and we'd steam the blocks to decompress...

    Health Urban Myths

    Hiya Agprov. North Staffordshire Mum here, and she was always rattling on as a young'n about KYBO (keeping your bowels open). When ever we'd be away, staying at rello's places, the last instruction was always...'and remember! K.Y.B.O' (spelt out) If Mum noticed that we weren't regular we'd...

    'The Great Global Warming Swindle': Is Climate Change A Myth?

    To me, the point is that temperature increase is not attributable to CO2 - it is the other way around...and always has been. Due to an ending/reduction of the Cenozoic Ice Age, Increase in temperature is inevitable and so also, is the increase in CO2, so drop the taxes and the guilt trips. We...

    'The Great Global Warming Swindle': Is Climate Change A Myth?

    To be honest Ross, my education was lacking (it still is) when it comes to climate change - I havre a vague understooding of the science that surrounds this topic, energy altering when in a specific atmosphere...but. The awareness that we are still in an ice age didn't enter my equation. That...

    'The Great Global Warming Swindle': Is Climate Change A Myth?

    What struck me rigid, and explained it all quite simply was that we are still in an ice age - a recognised by science - Ice Age, so we can expect temperatures to rise (please excuse my ignorance) Why don't they start all conversations about climate change with that.

    'The Great Global Warming Swindle': Is Climate Change A Myth?

    My take. So its going to get hotter than what we're tooled up for...and the oceans will warm up producing more volatility in climate...flora will alter, and fauna will need to get smaller for easier heat dissipation as we progress out of the Cenezoic ice age. So we don't need to stop pumping...

    The 'Obesity Epidemic'

    Personally, I walk 3 kilometres every morning, I'm very considerate of salt intake, fat intake, and sugar (don't have any sugar) and yet portion size is the one that tends to 'consolidate' on me. I eat two meals a day with some cheese, nuts, or fruit around about one...but come Christmas, I...

    Animism

    Language is so limiting, isn't it Skinny... You're right - animism in its various forms has been chugging along as an undercurrent to the extremes of contemporary invention quite nicely. And it seems to me to be obvious what it is and how it fits...which got me thinking of genesis (Yeah...I...

    Is animism just Old, old knowledge of the awareness of inherent energy in all things? Science from a distant and past age? There is the idea that a full moon is beneficial to plant life.

    I think that ALL life - even the lichen on our rocks, the bacteria under our nails and in our G.I.T. - are all the essential ingredients in the pudding called Earth (veering ever so close to the idea of Giai here).

    I don't know - Lamarckism is an acquired trait of a life time whereas this is a sudden impact, that creates an echo in our young'ns - Maybe it's the same thing, maybe it's not. A debatable point?

    The 'Obesity Epidemic'

    Interesting...When I was 18, I was 5'7, and weighed 11.7 stone, or 161 pounds - I was a ball of muscle after doing farmwork for three or four years. According to this chart I was overweight, or 'not' healthy. I would imagine that this chart is for Ectomorphs, and not Endomorphs. So lets sort...

    Now that is spooky Stormkahn. My Dad pierced my Mums ears when She was carrying my sister. At full term, Sister was delivered with a freckle on each lobe exactly where He made the punctures... Maybe this deserves it's own thread..? It reminds me of 'My Mum got scared by a monkey when she was...
