Cripes, that was my diet when I was at college. I'm joking of course.

Nothing to be ashamed of. Remember, Hitler was a vegetarian. (He
also was a teetotaler and shunned alcohol.) Another vegetarian was
Plato, and his "Republic" was a totalitarian society which, among
other things, would have prohibited music (and poets) because they
appealed to the emotions (Book X, "The Republic")

Actual studies of vegetarians have found a variety of both
physiological and psychological disorders associated with
vegetarianism:

HURRAY FOR NED!

I just have this thing for sanctimonious and proselytizing vegetarians
who present their arguments as if everybody else is immoral.

I support ANYONE who desires any sort of a restricted diet, but
the minute they start to tell me what (or who) to eat, they can go
stuff it.

I thought this thread was about that "Ghost in the Machine" business.

In such a spirit I pass on the mantra given to me by my guru (who just
happens to be from the Behaviourist Psychology lineage)

The mind doesn't matter, and the matter doesn't mind.

Holy crap, only ONE Google hit, and that only by dropping
the two the's from it. And from June, 2001. Talking about
dimensions. Correctly, imo, claims that the 5th dimension
(no retro puns on musical groups here, please) is the
"probability field to which the previous 4 are attracted".
(But we talked about this before.)
