4. So can BBQ's
http://www.mavericksofthemind.com/rob-int.htm

There was an interesting study conducted at Cornell. They started out analyzing the life-span of smokers and they calculated the amount of time that smokers smoked a day. They compared that to the decrease in life-span attributable to smoking and concluded that every minute a person smokes, it costs them, on average, seven or eight minutes of life.

Then they expanded the study to meat-eating and its mortality statistics, and they worked out how much time a meat-eater spends eating meat.(laughter) Anyway, their analysis was that every time a person eats meat they lose eleven minutes off their life-span.

Sorry...I just noticed this was your 666th post. :evilgrin:
