I don't care what you or any of the other gullible sheep who
believe anything some corporate-controlled government agencey
or corporate-controlled scientific institution publishes think.

The facts _I_ deal with are derived from observing the real
world.

I don't let anyone think for me.

I see the government and scientific institutions telling everyone:
The Miracle of Scientific Technological Medicine has resulted
in The Healthiest People Who Have Ever Lived On The Planet.

All Hail Farther Darwin and His Only Begotten Son, Our Savior
Technology!

And I look around me and see _very_ unhealthy people everywhere.

I can tell the difference between commercials and reality.
