Igor didn't make up the phrase above out of the blue, it was part of an
article in The Guardian, a well known London paper. You may wish to contact
the editors to find out more about the said report. Having said that, is it
really important whether the poor guy who's resting in peace was fat or not?
The Atkins diet may work very well for some people but Dr Atkins wasn't
'God' and his diet is not the answer to everybody's weight problem, as the
article very clearly states.

Whether Dr. Atkins was "God" or not, or whether is diet is the answer to
everybody's weight problem is not the issue. The point is that this article
is filled with misinformation, innuenedo, bias and outright lies.
