Dear fellow labourers for truth

The hype around the Food Guide quite frankly turns my stomach :-( 
 Especially the admonishments that eating healthy is the key to 
preventing disease.  As for one disease for which the hype continues see
The Retreat of the Diet-Heart Hypothesis
Journal of American Physicians and Surgeons Volume 8 Number 3 Fall 2003,

Which brings to mind (and, equally, to queasy stomach) the old 
observation that the government* is the executive** committee of the 
capitalist class (see  the Wikipedia entry for 'elite' and for 'elite 
theory' - both of which need some additions).

And *that both the big G, and that little g of the propaganda industry - 
that thin, whippy stick which rattles in the swill bucket called 
capitalism.  Yuk!

** And it is _all_ who are executed in an unequal world - in 
contradiction to older theories, and which the epidemiologists teach us 
-that _all _humans and _all _not-humans - all alike - all suffer when 
the devil*** enters a city.

*** as evidenced by the presence of selfishness, fear, pride, greed, 
envy, usury, 'mine-own-ership', NIMBY-ism, NOEIMBYETWSMAM-ism, etc, etc.

Hence the xtreme importance of this list-serv!

Love 2(u) all
