I think your decision in 1972 to shift from civil engineer to medical professional yield good results today, that’s great… goodluck sir – Medical Tourism in India

I certainly enjoy it more than I did Civil Engineering.

I’m so glad to see that you are up. I have been looking for you on this website since before June. I have purchased an RV which will soon be my home, office and only transportation. Your endorsement of Verizon Broadband is extremely helpful to me. Thank!

Wilda

Hi Wilda–

The Verizon Broadband has worked well for me on the routes I travel.� It works in virtually all large cities and in many small.� You can get on their site and determine the coverage (which is growing all the time) and see if it works for you.� Sometimes when I’m not in a major city the downloads are slow, but at least they exist.� I’ve been pretty happy with the service all in all.

Sir is there any lit that states categorically when cells flip from glucose burning to fat burning i.e after how many hours, please ?

Thankee kindly

Hi Simon–

None that I know of that states categorically.� Based on my reading on the subject, both appear to go on at the same time.� There isn’t a time that one stops and the other begins; there is a relative difference between the�two, but both�go on at the same time.

You have read Tufte’s discussion on the use of PowerPoint for scientific purposes, I hope?

Just trying to save you some loathing.
Make a couple of good, information-rich displays and just talk to em.

Hi Connie–

Thanks for the link.� I’m a big fan of Edward Tufte’s, and, in fact, I’m planning on taking his course this December in San Francisco.� I’ll let everyone know how it goes.

I have just received verification that my trademark application for the term, “Protein PowerPointer” has been approved. You will now owe me fifty bucks for each usage.
Also, do not be alarmed with the CHP pulls alongside your vehicle on the drive home. I copied your admission to driving 80 mph, sent it to their website along with your descriptions and they replied by promising to pull you over for a speeding citation and a thorough search of your vehicle for any suspicious protein-related propaganda.
I am sure you will understand that reporting speeding surfers like you is my civic duty. The next thing you know, you and your high-tech Nascar wannabes will be speeding down the freeways while holding cell phones to your distracted brains.
Feel free to email me from your fancy laptop if you need the contact info for a good bailbondsman.
Oh, and have a nice day.

Hey DB–

I’ll have to give credit where credit is due.� DB is one of my golf-playing buddies who actually accused me of being the Protein PowerPointer when I couldn’t escape my slide making� play a round.� I wish I could take credit for the expression, but I can’t.� I guess I owe you $50.

Ala, despite your best wishes, the CHP left us unharrassed.

Hope the talk goes well. Look forward to hearing about it and the other “blogworthy material” you will be posting.

Hi Sue–

Thanks for the good thoughts.� I, too, am awaiting the blogworthy blogs.� I need to get busy.

Good luck with your talk!

I read Dr. Atkins first book earlier this year – more as history than anything else. I wanted to see how the diet started off.

So how did you become a low-carb proponant anyway?

Hi Victoria–

Thanks for the good wishes.

Started low-carb myself years ago when I gained weight and went through the medical literature to figure out why.� I realized early on that insulin was probably what caused it, and reducing insulin can be done easily with a low-carb diet.
