Wow. It's a good tie-in to Easter, since it seems Jesus wasn't the only one... the trolls are popping up about every three days as well!

On the offchance you are interested, as was made very clear in the media at the time, Dr Atkins slipped on an icy pavement, and died from the resulting head injury.

Yes, Nuna, many have either stated outright or implied that Dr. Atkins died of a heart attack hoping to discredit his life's work, but his death certificate states quite clearly that the cause of death was "blunt impact injury of the head with subdural hematoma" (brain bleed). In plain english, he fell down and hit his head which caused bleeding in his brain that killed him.

nix,

we're low-carbing to improve our way of life, to improve how we feel about ourselves and the world around us, and to better ourselves all the way around.

what do you do to attain these things? are you a better person for coming to a board and making hateful judgements about people you don't know anything about?

i suppose it might make you feel better about yourself... bullies of all kinds find fault in others for the sole purpose of inflating their own ego.
