Sparky,
That's an interesting concept! [Linked Image]

We can only hope that someday an unbiased statistical study will conclude that worrying about "currents of death" causes greater health problems than the "currents" themselves.
I tend to feel the same way about many of today's health scares.

Paul,
It seems to me, that anything that we might enjoy or have to work with, either causes Heart Disease, The Big C or Cholestrol(?).
Did you guys, in the UK have the big scare over eating Eggs?, they were riddled with
Cholestrol, and we were warned not to eat any more than 2 in one meal, now however, they are mooted as a "health food", as long as they are "free-range" and are "cruelty-
free".
Who are these people who make these announcements?, what a pack of losers! [Linked Image]
It's my life and I'll live it how I like!.

Yes, the great egg scare took place here as well. 40 years ago we had the "Go to work on an egg" campaign to tell everyone how good eggs were for you!

If everyone avoided eating everything that the govt. has announced to be "bad" in the last few years, then we'd all starve!

Paul,
I certainly hear you there,mate!.
There was a scare over here, with eating things like Meat, Fried chips, you name it.
It was all these do-gooders, telling us that if we ate this sort of food we would die early death's.
They recommended that we eat heaps of Green vegetables, salads, use olive oil to cook with and never eat Fish and Chips, as they are the food of the Devil (just kidding!).
It's a wonder that they didn't tell us to hug the odd tree, too!. [Linked Image]
