Look, we all have our own definition of hell. Some of us are living it.

However, most of us have acknowledged that we are the ones experiencing it; I doubt Bri (-anna or -an) think anyone else can take their treatments for them.

I am obese; I have (pre) diabetes. It's my problem and I don't expect society to 'fix' it for me. I may get a lap-band to help me lose weight. But I have been a contributing member of our economy 13 years, and will continue to be one till I die. I have earned my medical insurance, and I will probably be (actuarialy) at least as valuable to society as my future medical care will warrant.

I'm not sure what I came here to say, 'cept that freeloaders bother me! At least make a goddamn effort, please?

The fun thing about evolution (and science in general) is that it happens whether you believe in it or not.
