You mean you didn't see the part where fanatical users develop immunity but people who only use the phone for emergencies get a tumor after just two minutes?

do they assume they need more sex because they get pregnant more often? or else, how did they figure that out? after all, you can have lots of sex without getting pregnant...

My mother drank a lot of coffee every day - probably 6 cups minimum. She was diagnosed with Alzheimer's at the age of 64 so is the classic exception that proves the rule. I hope.

Maybe it's my drinking far less as I get older that is making the knees ache!

I thought mine hurt because of having been a knee-jerk this, that, or the other throughout my life.
One of them hurts because I fell off a ladder. If I'd been inside drinking at the time, I could have avoided that fall.

I hate the term "brain shrinkage". It gives me visions of those time lapse films showing an apple drying up on a plate.
