does durianrider really have any idea?
Over the last few months I have witnessed durianrider attempt to ridicule, Brian Clement, Gabriel Cousins, Robert Young, David Wolfe, Edward Howell to name but a few. These people alone have around 150 years of experience and research in food nutrition. He sometimes makes the most outrageous remarks and fails to deliver any supporting data time and time again. When challenged, he usually responds with some flippant remark or more often fails to respond at all. My favourite Durianrider quotes are the recent ones;
'i do a bit of shopping for my grandma. i brought around some cert organic gala apples. she told me they are too hard on her body and she only eats golden delicious. grandma told me this whilst eating a msg soaked bbq chip..lol!
i always have a giggle when crew diss fruit and they are eating cancer fodder.
i used to get frustrated about it, but ive learnt that some crew are genetically damaged mentally and cant uptake basic human physiology info. being raw has really taught me what acceptance and tolerance really is
so im gonna add acceptance and tolerance to the 811 lifestyle as key factors to thriving in this cooked world'.
And the classic reply when asked to justify why humans need to train to run 26 miles;
'hey, you never know when a tsunami is coming! better to be in shape than not be in shape dont you reckon?'
What's your favourite Durianrider quote?
So if you are new to Raw food please beware Durianrider has only one message- 811 is the only dietary option. Most experienced Raw foodists disagree with this and unlike Durianrider are prepared to back their statements up.

I also have benefited from some of DR's info. But ends don't justify means.
If someone starts a helpful conversation by slapping the person before the first word is spoken....is the helpful content of the speech considered to "out weigh" the fact that the conversation actually started with a slap?
I think conduct is too important to disregard, no matter how beneficial the information. Shouldn't we demand that even the most knowledgeable members of this group have nothing but respect for their fellow members?

What's the point of this? Address your points to durianrider directly or make a complaint to Dhru. Don't turn this site into your own personal grudge platform. People are intelligent enough to decide if they want to listen to durianrider or not.

Wrong Charles, Durianrider and Co have sabotaged every thread that puts forward information that may discredit 811. They make ridiculous comments and then delete them so we can't report it. Durianrider is a big boy who likes to give out criticism. Let's see if he is big enough to take it?

This is not your forum, dude. I'm not a durianrider fan either, but this is just a personal attack.
Address your complaint to Dhru. Seeing "if he is big enough to take it" is just childish.

there are personalities far more intense than Durian's that have been hybernating lately. I tolerate them all even when they piss me off. The great thing about this cyber world is you choose what you want to read, choose what ideas to absorb..if your reading a thread and you know you don't agree with durianriders words skim pass them...it is that simple.
Where is the tolerance in this place?!

using your logic Sheryl, you could simply "skim pass" this discussion too? Why do you bother to disagree with this particular discussion? If you don't agree just move along!
I'm not trying to offend you....really I'm not. I'm just illustrating how the table could be turned on what you suggested we should do about DR's comments we don't agree with.

what's a little accurate criticism to a super fruity human ultra athlete? I'm sure he can handle what he dishes?!

Charles, I think all avenues are valid. DR runs amok and adds ridiculous comments which have a decent opportunity to effect the way raw information is disseminated. If DR continues to have a forum here I think it's valid to remind everyone how fundamental and dogmatic and intolerant his info can be. So for me it's more of a balance.

It's not your place to be durianrider's keeper. It's Dhru's site. This thread is retarded and it's a personal attack. The subject heading is a dead giveaway.
Again, if you don't like durianrider, then don't respond to him. I don't. Some people really like what he has to say.
It's not your job to remind anyone of how fundamental and intolerant he may be. Let people be their own judges.

Each of us has an agenda. I try to be always be mindful of the future readers as well as the current ones. It may not be my job but it's definitely my interest.

OK. Then if you don't like what's being said in this discussion, maybe you shouldn't respond to it either?
(just suggesting you take your own advice)

You wanna both snowboard and ski? You usually have to stick to one if you want to master it. Not saying you can't do both, but maybe wait until you got the hang of it before switching up.
I feel that way about just about everything that's raw related. Food, appliances, whatever.
marry me?

My dog likes to sleep between my legs. Warm and I rather not speculate what's going through Mr. SS McCracken's head. Then again, he likes to sniff the cat's butt after using the litterbox :hurl:
When we wake up the day saying yay to a better way, then the worst case scenario moves from bad to okay.
3 days i did a little foraging for some fennel
This is WONDERFUL news!!!!! Many blessings from God to you. I love yoga. It is working miracles in my physical and spiritual walk with the Lord. Someday I'd like to visit India with my mother and sister.
One of my coworkers left a Little Debbie zebra cake for me for my b-day. I ate half and gave the other half to my husband. Sometimes I'm able to resist and some days (like now when Aunt Flo arrives) I nibble. The other day my husband made stovetop...
my cat does dog tricks too.... he's orange the same as yours, orange kitties are so smart!
I love food as long as it's good. I love the fact my husband raised two turkeys for himself instead of being like his friends and buying the five dollar turkey at Walmart (yes there really is a five dollar turkey). My grandpa died at 103 and that'...
You wanna add vodka to it, knock yourself out, Jeff. ;-)
