LOL! Chung, who do you think you are fooling? Everybody has this
thread killfiled anyway and probably both of us :-) You want to have a
"Macro Fight to the Death"?

Here's a peace offering... you reign in your macro and I'll reign in
mine.

You can even have the last word as long as it is not a macro.

Well, Chung, looks like the Battle of the Macros again :-(

It remains my choice not to comply with your request.

Thanks.

You are welcome to continue posting. I am not going to stop you.

Here's a new "macro" for you. You will be seeing it every time you
post yours.

Looks like you have put a lot of work into it. Would speak to your
obsessions.

What would "speak" to yours ?

Give it a break, Chung. You're an Internet Joke. And the bigger joke
is you don't realize it.

GREAT performance piece! Especially Linda!


I'd just like to thank my mother, my agent, my therapist, the cast, the
crew, and all those little people behind the scenes. Without them I
would not be standing here accepting this award.

And to all those aspiring performance artists out there who may be
watching tonight: Never give up your dream!

But do you mention all the people you trampled on your way to the top?
Oh, NooOOOoooo.

Sounds like you write from experience.

You poor guy.

FYI Note: I am aware that I am responding to a cross-posted message.
Because the author of the message to which I am responding did not
request that the header be trimmed, I have not trimmed it. If you are
upset about reading this message, a few suggestions:

(1) Yell at Steve
(2) Report Steve to his ISP.
(3) Killfile this thread.
(4) Killfile me.
(5) Read about free speech.

This discussion(s) is related to the 2 pound diet approach (2PD) which is
described completely at:

http://www.heartmdphd.com/wtloss.asp

Though Dr. Chung invented this approach, he did not initiate this Usenet
discussion(s). His participation in this discussion(s) has been voluntary
and has been conducted in the spirit of community service. His motivation
has been entirely altruistic and has arisen from his religious beliefs as a
Christian. Jesus freely gave of Himself to better the health of folks He
touched:

http://www.heartmdphd.com/healer.asp

From the outset, it has been clear that there are those who are vehemently
opposed to the 2 pound diet approach. They have debated Dr. Chung on every
perceived weakness of the 2 pound diet approach and have lost the argument
soundly at every point:

http://www.heartmdphd.com/wtlossfaqs.asp

These debates are archived on Google in their entirety within this and other
discussion threads.

However, instead of conceding gracefully that they've lost the argument(s),
certain parties have redirected their hatred of the 2 pound diet approach
toward its author. The rationale appears to be "if you can not discredit
the message then try to discredit the messenger."

Initially, these folks accused the messenger of "trolling." A "troll" is
someone who posts under the cloak of anonymity messages with no redeeming
discussion value and with the sole purpose of starting "flame" wars.

These hateful folks lost credibility with this accusation when the following
observations were made:

(1) Dr. Chung has not been posting anonymously.
(2) The 2PD has been on-topic for the Usenet discussion groups hosting the
discussion(s).
(a) Those who are failing low-carbing can dovetail LC with the 2PD to
achieve near-ideal weight.
(b) Obese diabetics improve their blood glucose control when their
weight becomes near-ideal.
(c) For (b) see: http://tinyurl.com/levc
(3) Dr. Chung did not start the discussion(s).
(4) The 2 pound diet approach is 100% free (no profit motive).
(5) Dr. Chung's credentials are real and easily verified on-line (including
jpegs of the actual diplomas).

Full of hatred, frustration, and desperation, certain individuals have tried
to attack Dr. Chung's credentials knowing full well that they were
attempting to libel him. One notable example is Mr. Pastorio:

http://www.heartmdphd.com/libel.asp

When the full light was cast on Mr. Pastorio's libelous statements, the
hateful folks hiding in the darkness of anonymity only hissed louder in
support of their fallen hero.

Fortunately, those who have been following this discussion(s) either
actively or as lurkers can easily dismiss the hisses, for what they are,
using the on-line third-party resources at:

http://www.heartmdphd.com/profile.asp

where Dr. Chung's credentials can be verified many times over and libelous
claims that credentials were bought are easily and summarily debunked.

Moreover, readers need only make the following observations concerning the
anon posters who continue to hiss (ie JC Der Koenig, Steve, and Mack):

(1) They are anonymous and thus they expect to have no credibility (or
accountability).
(2) They are by their Usenet history courtesy of Google, unsavory
characters.
(3) They have not added anything to the discussion(s) except to deliver
one-sided insults.
(4) They complain about alleged cross-posts from Dr. Chung by cross-posting.

(5) They do not complain about cross-posts from folks who attack the 2PD or
its author.

and conclude that these anon posters deserve only their kill file.

It is my hope that the above brings new readers of this thread up to speed.

It will remain my pleasure to participate here on Usenet above the din of
hissing from the peanut gallery.


Sincerely,

Andrew

Loretta it doesn't do any good trying to reason with a true psychotic

ignore him and starve him to death.

Or at least keep the replies less than two feet long.

Steve-

It has recently come to my attention that there are
certain savage tribes
in the world who do not use feet and inches (like God
intended) to measure
distance. Instead, they use a bizarre system they
call "meters" (some are
known to spell it "metres").

Is it possible for these poor souls to take advantage
of the Two Foot
Diet? I have considered starting a fundraising drive
to send rulers to
these backward areas, but it seems like a daunting
task. Is there an
easier solution?

The solution is already there (here)! In my backward
country the rulers come with metric measurements one
side, the other stuff on the other side. 38 years of
metric has not been long enough for our residents to
learn metric. The reason I know it is 38 years because
on Valentine's Day 1966 every beau was heard singing to
his honey: "In come the dollars, in come the cents, out
go the pounds, the shillings and the pence; So be
prepared when the money starts to mix - on the
fourteenth of February, 1966". Sung to the tune of
Click Goes The Shears - an Aussie sheep shearing song.
On that day we also turfed the inches. Sadly a lot of
our old sayings didn't have quite the ring to them
anymore. Like give him a centimetre and he'll take a
kilometre doesn't quite do it. And judging someone by
*your own yardstick* became *by your own metrestick*.

So be sorry no more for us poor souls, we are
survivors!

The reason it doesn't sound right is the correct expression is
"give a man two and a half centimeteres and he'll take 1.609
kilometeres" , at least thats the way it's in Canada .

The answer is in front of one's very nose. Well, under it actually.
Most people have two feet. Why not simply line up a day's fodder in two
lines between those feet. Make sure the lines do not extend outside the
limits bounded by heel and big toe.

This would solve one of the intrinsic problems of the standard two foot
diet (also shared by the two pound diet), namely that the quantity of
food to eat isn't adjusted for the size of the person eating it.
Smaller, lighter people tend to have shorter feet.

Somewhat Humbly Yours,
Vance
