    It's all BS until we get an HD photo or video. Until that comes out it's grift and noise.

    If you are going to make an extraordinary claim you have to back it up with evidence. Is your theory just a hunch? What can you actually show to support your post?

    I don't really like the writing style but get he's going for the shock factor. All this obsession about diet is frustrating because worrying about "calories" will never be an issue if you do the following:

    1. Drink mostly water (coffee + tea + occasional splurges okay)
    2. Eat mostly whole foods, and mostly vegetables and fruits. Said simply: "Eat the rainbow"
    3. Do some active exercise regularly.
      Find me one person who does all that and is overweight.

    Veggies + more on toast is the most versatile vegan meal. Start with your toast, add a generous helping of your vegan spread of choice (I like Hummus), and as many veggies as you have on hand. If you premix all the veggies in a bowl and add salt/pepper and a dash of olive oil it also is good.

    Don't laugh, but Avril Lavigne. "Losing grip" is an insanely good song. And it sounds great on vinyl.

    One of Reddit's greatest strengths is (was?) the ability for anyone to build a community. I'm hoping that community building aspect can come here with more groups in time.

    I spend so much time in front of a computer screen, that I simply can't bring myself to use yet another screen and spend yet more of my time in front of an Ebook reader. So I stick to paper.
