Ephedra Ban
and if you read closer. He asked if ephedrine not ephedra could be used for
meth. Perhaps we ought to be more scared of carless people like you than the government. I actually was not thrilled with the ephedra ban. I don't use it, not because it doesn't work, but because it has a rebound affect. Good for losing fat short term, but you usually gain most of it back if you are allready fairly lean. A very overweight person probably wouldn't, but they probably would be at increased risk. In case you aren't aware. LOL stands for laughing outloud. I was trying to denote sarcasm, but I obviously went over your head. Sorry about that chum "Mike1" wrote in message ... "Kevin J.

You stupid ass; if you're going to make a claim like that, you should at least bother to READ THE MATERIAL WHICH YOU REQUOTED IN ITS ENTIRETY. Now go back and re-familiarize yourself with what "JimmySmith" originally wrote. Perhaps we..... "We"? Do you have a gerbil somwhere? -- Reply to sans two @@, or your reply won't reach me.

it's people like you that give weightlifters a bad name, with all your
ranting and raving, you don't get listened to. Take up a real cause "Mike1" wrote in message ...

In short, you "don't care" when your country becomes a communazi nanny-state, and the reason for that is because you're a *moron* with a slave-mentality. I don't like the language or the attitude. It's unfortunate that there's some truth to the comments, though. The language and attitude are reserved for those who *earn* them. In 1967, my dad got a Jeep Wagoneer with seat belts, the first car I recall having them and made us all buckle up because he was safety conscious. The government didn't have to tell us to do it, and as long as they weren't in our car, we didn't think those who didn't "click it" should get a "ticket" (Michigan campaign, not sure if "click it or ticket is national or local.) When I was 16 and giving fellow baseball team members a ride, they certainly were annoyed at my seat belt rule. My dad said I woldn't be driving if I didn't buckle it, I listened and developed the habit. Now I believe they can stop you if they even suspect you are not wearing a seat belt? It's absurd. They chink away at our liberty a little at a time. And it affects the medical industry, the nutrition industry, and thyroid treatment. The legal implications of thyroid treatment don't allow the profit margins of those whose lobbyists have influence, so they got rid of Dr. Barry Durrant-Peatfield in the UK and then immediately went after Dr. David Derry in British Columbia, Canada. Even though he had a lot of his patients supporting him, they alone couldn't create enough of an uproar to make the British Columbian government reconsider. Some day, those in the United States are going to have to start getting upset about the loss of liberty. Either that, or lose it. This has been going on full-blast for a whole century. It would be a terrible thing to many of us if there wasn't enough profit in Armour, so the lobbyists went after a ban on it. The trend in the loss of liberty for the common man is scary. ON the other hand, under our current president, the rich and the industrial polluters have a lot more of it. Marxist twaddle. -- Reply to sans two @@, or your reply won't reach me.
