So me hopes your love life is good too. Right? Seriously, thats a great
indication of healthy connections. Not only that you can attract someone but
that you love someone.

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?

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.
