Default Body Fat Test

I'm finding the standard weight-to-BMI charts to be worse than useless --
something that's been commented on a fair amount here. I tried the Health
Central one one out, and at least for me it seemed to make some sense:

http://www.healthcentral.com/cooltoo...s/bodyfat1.cfm

It measured my bodyfat at about what I'd imagine it at and gave me a BMI

that
sounds like it could be reasonably accurate (22.5%). So having said that,

has
anyone tried out this site? Any thoughts on it? D'ya think it's any better

than
any of the other BMI guesstimates out there on the web?


This site puts me at 19%, which is close, but a little low. THen there are
these sites...
