Post #149,971 by Andrew Grygus 4/4/04 1:49:14 PM Reply	Statistics again . . . Are we sure this decrease in hight of the "average" American isn't caused by the high and constant flow of immigrants from Asia, Mexico and other areas with shorter average populations? [link\|http://www.aaxnet.com\|AAx]
Post #150,023 by jake123 4/4/04 9:43:47 PM Reply	I read the article it was in this week's New Yorker. They controlled for that. What the main researcher is attempting to do is to find out if there's some enclave of rich tall people, but he hasn't found it yet. According to the article, there are three main growth spurts in a person's life; infancy, childhood, and adolescence. If there are bad circumstances in any one of those periods, it can have a major effect on the final height of the person. He's wondering if the kind of diet that most people in NA have is having an effect (pop, chips, hamburgers, etc). That is, people are getting stunted in their childhood and adolescent growth spurts by the kind of diet they have, not by the lack of diet. --\n-------------------------------------------------------------------\n* Jack Troughton jake at consultron.ca \n [link\|http://consultron.ca\|http://consultron.ca] [link\|irc://irc.ecomstation.ca\|irc://irc.ecomstation.ca] \n Kingston Ontario Canada [link\|news://news.consultron.ca\|news://news.consultron.ca] *\n-------------------------------------------------------------------

Now I am biased because I am allergic to bourbon but we need to research what high fructose corn syrop does to the system vs sugar cane extract.

Post #150,068 by boxley 4/5/04 10:44:06 AM Reply	Not allergic to corn but bourbon has a strange effect and have broken out in hives a couple of times. It also puts me in a zero tolerance mode, not good considering the places I used to imbibe bourbon in. All other liquors have the normal relaxed fun effect, its bourbon specifically that hits me wrong. thanx, bill "You're just like me streak.
