It's all that high-fructose corn syrup they put in everything, isn't it?

Oh absolutely. We need some sugars in our diet, and the occasional gatorade is no more "unhealthy" than anything else. People just want to condense everything to "good" or "bad" as if there's no room for nuance when diet and health are so much more complicated than that.

Wow this is a big insight on how a sweet tooth leads is related to memory loss.

Interesting. I wonder how consuming something like OJ with a food that's high in fiber would change this, if at all?

Sounds like it. I think the difference is when the fruit is whole, it's bound up in fiber, takes more time to digest, and thus doesn't spike blood sugar as much.

Centuries. We've known since the early-middle 1800's at LEAST.

I’m also in a very geologically stable area. 6 inches.

I have lived in the same estuary for four decades now, much of it spent in the water. I’m familiar with the tides, passes, channels and bars. Every marginal area I have to have a certain water depth to make it over. This is my life. As a child I frolicked on a bedrock shoal that bared at low water. That area no longer dries out. 6 inches m’dears.

Reply to comment by Finrafirlame in Study on former citizens of East Germany sheds light on why people may choose deliberate ignorance by chrisdh79
I am not comparing what happened, but instead why they chose not wanting to know. The reasoning for that choice is the same.
So not how but why people don't want to know the possible bad things done by neighbors, friends and family or country. This was and always is a possibility thus fear will influence that choice. Even if you already have suspicions or know you can choose to believe otherwise by ignoring real evidence.
That same influence happens with abuse and racism. This is something people sometimes choose not to believe or ignore because it could be somebody you trust, a best friend or family member you love.
What people find more important also influences that choice. You can choose somebody you know or yourself over what somebody did.
So my comparison is indeed about the influence of who on a choice. For bystanders and victims.

Your comparision is absolutely incorrect.
It's not about HOW Stasi worked, HOW you were observed and reported.
It's about WHO snitched on you.
Opposite to most racism and abuse, there is no one denying the crimes and its victims.
In a lot of cases, the victims already narrowed down who might have known. Looking into the folders means finally finding out, if it was the neighbours, the mailman, the plumber, the parents (quite unusual), or one of the 5 family friends. In those 30 years after the "Wende", the victim moved away (no contact to neighbours, mailman or plumber), father has died, mother is in a senior home, and 3 of the 5 friends are also out of the picture. The consequence, typically a hold or downgrade in career is also 38 years ago.
So this the standard case:
- no need for proof, people believe you when you just tell them
- a thought of "it doesn't matter almost 40 years later, it won't improve my life"
- and a thought of "either it was omeone I will never see again, or it was someone that I would forgive anyway, but before it would hurt a lot.
And here we are...

Well, don't be lazy and read the rest then. Off you go! I have no real obligation to write more and repeat what those references already explain. Your last sentence is rendered irrelevant by my very first link. My last link is the graph from that exact same Princeton study and it's the one which shows extinction levels not matching the Big Five extinctions until at least 2300. (You would have seen it if you read the entire article.)

But if you're not sedentary and just completed vigorous exercise, some electrolytes in the form of a sports drink for example might still make sense..

I just looked at your last reference so I have no idea how much you've skewed the rest of your diatribe, but the Princeton study you've referenced shows we're on track for major ocean extinction by 2100. And we all know big oil has made zero plans for actually curbing emissions.
