Have you not read the previous posts about MSG that differ from what you
say?

I am reminded of the bumper sticker that I saw in my local health-nut
coop " 'You cannot simultaneously have peace and prepare for war',
Albert Einstein". Tho' I never have seen a reference to an actual quote,
it might appear that Einstein had come up with a new and profound notion
despite quite opposite opinions over the centuries, notably von
Klausewitz and Sun Tsu (about 544-496 BC)
