hi guys,
I believe "the culprit" was a combination of factors. Not just heart disease, but obesity, diabetes, arthritis, and many other conditions existed -- but only among the upper classes. The diseases that we suffer from today were once calle...

Raw since July 2007. I have lost 50 pounds improved my eyesight, cured my chronic fatigue, improved my circulation, lowered my cholesterol, cured acute backache, don't snore anymore, don't get BO. My body is much more flexible, my skin is much softer, my memory has improved, my mind is sharper, from being extremely unfit I recently ran a half marathon and cycled 52 miles 1 week later. Why don't I eat cooked food? See above!

Aw bless you Chris you can come anyway seeing as you're a vip and a source of entertainment for us all! Kate Magic put her in touch with me via the wonders of facebook. I'm glad it didn't have a mental slant :)

Gosh- I don't know when I'm coming to your neck of the woods. We just bought a house and I started a new job recently, so I don't think we'll be traveling much for awhile- unless we can score some work across the pond or if my friend in London decided to get married! Can you help me get a grant to search for Nessie? ;-)
