Oh, but since you wanted to read something, I'll repeat it again, and give you a link.
http://colon-cleansing.info/senatedoc264.htm Or just do a Google search for Senate Document 264. You'll come up with a lot of interesting things to read, and maybe you can direct your uncalled for rage at them. |

Did you ever wonder why the Senate would be discussing something this trivial, when faced with the greatest depression of modern times. Go here to find out: http://www.usd.edu/anth/epa/dust.html You are right (at that time) but not now. Hey, we learn a lots with open discussion, don't we! The Old Timer. Or just do a Google search for Senate Document 264. You'll come up with a lot of interesting things to read, and maybe you can direct your uncalled for rage at them. And before you post again, please be sure to at least read that *one* article before outright refusing any possible information that is contrary to what you believe.

I am combining the 3 posts BRD made into one. Poor fellow, I skeered
him so bad it took him three tries to answer me.

"ElissaAnn" Okey dokey, artichoke. Seems like one of us needs to take a little nap! Seems like you've been napping, or is your brain dysfunctional from the snake oil you've been consuming? Maybe *you* should ask the Wizard for a heart, or some rage counseling? Must be the mineral deficiencies in my vegetables. Oh, wait, I eat organic vegetables grown on organic soils. Oh, wait again, you reject the notion that certified organic vegetables are truly organic. Prolly part of that government conspiracy, huh? Of course, you haven't offered any criteria on what constitutes an organic vegetable, either, but let's not confuse the issue with facts, eh? Again, didn't come here to start a war, or ruffle your feathers Peen-A-Lope, and I do believe in organic gardening, just not the kind provided in Supermarkets. So, this in no way affects the credibility of you or 'those around you', because I'm trying to get information on home gardening, which is what this site is about I take it? If you had come here just for advice, that's what you would have asked about; however, you devoted well over a hundred lines to your fraudulent claims about depleted soils and government cover-ups. And, yes, your faux science does damage the credibility of people with real science who are trying to coax others into trying a few organic solutions to gardening problems. Or just do a Google search for Senate Document 264. You'll come up with a lot of interesting things to read, and maybe you can direct your uncalled for rage at them. Funny how every single site that comes up in a Google search on "Senate Document 264" is a commercial site, and each and everyone has the "cure" for the "problem". Not one site that isn't trying to sell you something. Of even more interest are the sites that come up when you google on Senate Document 264 and "debunk" or "quackary". But I wanted to have some information that carried a little weight, so I started at James Randi's site, and followed links to the National Council Against Health Fraud, a not-for-profit organization. http://www.ncahf.org/. Searching their web site turned up this little tidbit: http://www.ncahf.org/nl/1998/1-2.html Scroll a little past half way down the page and you'll find this under "DEAD DOCTORS" DOESN'T DIE "The most recent contribution to the body of counter information is offered by Donald Davis, PhD, of the University of Texas at Austin. Davis located "Senate Document 264" cited by Wallach as evidence that 99% of Americans are deficient in minerals. It turns out that the "document" is nothing more than the reprinting of a highly speculative article about a passing fad written by a Florida farmer in the June, 1936, issue of Cosmopolitan magazine as requested by Florida's Senator Fletcher. Fletcher died 16 days after requesting that the government printing office reprint the article." Did ya get that? The famous Senate Document 264 is a reprint of an article from Cosmopolitan. Your research on "nutrient deficiencies among the 'civilized' areas of the world." is based on a 1936 article from Cosmo magazine! Of course, the nice thing about believing in government conspiracies is that you can squeal "but..but that's what the government and the eeeeevil pharmaceutical companies *want* you to believe!" May I offer you your own advice? "And before you post again, please be sure to at least read that *one* article before outright refusing any possible information that is contrary to what you believe.

Diabetes, Angina, Cancer, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, depression...and the list goes on. I'm assuming you're referring to Type II diabetes? It's not caused by deficiencies, but by excesses. A high fat, low fiber diet with lots of simple carbohydrates (as opposed to complex) with little exercise predisposes an individual to Type II Diabetes. So, while you might see less Type II Diabetes in a third world country, it has very little to do with the soil in which they grow their crops. Angina? Angina is a symptom of coronary artery disease, the most common type of heart disease. Coronary Artery Disease occurs when plaque builds up in the coronary arteries.Once again, angina is most often a symptom of excess, not deficiency. There are multiple causes of cancer, just as there are multiple types of cancer, so that's a little vague to tackle in a Usenet post; besides the fact that cancer does happen to people in third world countries. Chronic Fatigue Syndrome is caused by a virus, not nutritional deficiencies. And depression is another condition with multiple causes, and also occurs in third world countries. So, your disease theory is full of holes, too. Penelope, off to rage at a man about a cricket. |

Here you go Penalope:
http://carcino.gen.nz/images/index.p...9a680/463c5922 This isn't going anywhere, and I found out what I needed to know somewhere else anyways. So, you're all correct, and I'm 100% wrong. Now let me go virtually hang my head in shame! Lip trembles, wipes away tear |

Oh, and on a final note, I have to post multiple times to get one message across, because this horribly weak site doesn't support Avatars or the ability to edit your previous posts.

I think it's really too bad that you had to get NASTY.

I felt sorta wryly amused when I wrote that line. When I got to the bit about the infamous Senate Document 264 being a reprint of an article from Cosmo, well I'm afraid I cackled gleefully.

BRD said, "This isn't going anywhere, and I found out what I needed to know
somewhere else anyways." I simply asked, nicely, I thought, where he/she found the wanted info. How is that "nasty"? "Penelope Periwinkle" wrote in message ...
