Seriously, thats a great indication of healthy connections. Not only that you can attract someone but that you love someone. > Some of us really, truly do not fit into your scare > tactics scenario. I realize that and well what can I say Karen. If you and conservatives and smokers and people in denial want to believe what you want, I am sure there will be plenty of you guys and immigrants around to comfort each other in the coming years. Seriously and what could be more encompassing? > > I think these things have been bigger factors wrt > my health: no sunning bathing, VERY limited intake > of alcohol, no smoking, no late-night partying, > getting enough sleep, trying to avoid all the foods > that are making too many Americans obese. > Getting enough sleep is a biggies for me. If your body aint going to do it, its certainly not the fault of the person. But in areas where conscious decisons to better lifestyle and diet promote better health I agree. You see I can accept the positives and sure wish I did all this earlier. But and its a big but, all that can never be enough if your not breathing clean air. This is the most important issue I believe people often overlook. Some people anyway. Some changes are being made that in around 20 years could affect the area for the positive. I heard our Mayor is bringing some pollution lowering buses to the city so thats also good. But I am afraid the damage from the air and prior smoking has made me dependent on scare tactics based on reality. I can decipher the differences. You can't Karen, we agree to disagree. I for one , if I was happy and healthy would not worry what someone had to say , if you were really sure of your convictions. But who really really knows unless your a DR who has studied this issue. At the very least , if you think the interenet provides an opportunity for rational people to go over issues, one would hope there was evidence to back up your claims for good health.At the very least if people question my contentions they assume there is a remote possibility what I am saying is correct. There is virtually no way I am going to stop posting about this because I feel so strongly about it and I was brought up to believe in provoking thought till questions are answered and in protecting people who might not know better. I would hope if I was living in danger and didn't know of it, someone would help me understand of that possibility even if it turns out to be just an opinion that needs further investigation. The best thing I can tell you is ignore me if you think you got good air around you. For me if I was richer I would have been gone years ago. > > > > > >
