Imagine all the food you have eaten in your life and consider that you are simply some of that food, rearranged.  -Max Tegmark, physicist

 

Gene Weingarten, writing in the Washington Post about online news stories and the accompanying readers' comments: "I basically like 'comments,' though they can seem a little jarring: spit-flecked rants that are appended to a product that at least tries for a measure of objectivity and dignity. It's as though when you order a sirloin steak, it comes with a side of maggots."

 

No amount of belief makes something a fact.  -James Randi, magician and skeptic

Dark chocolate is it for me.  I eat some every day but I do not overindulge.  Well, once in a while...

 

I make a gluten-free chocolate cake with a dark chocolate ganache topping  every week and we eat small pieces once a day.

 

(We finally came to the conclusion that Ed does not have a gluten intolerance, but I really like the recipe.)
