Health Science 101 Guidelines
Greetings! Welcome to Health Science.
Here's where we talk about the latest fad diets, the advantages of vegetarianism, the joy of exercise and good health. Like everywhere else at Tweb our decorum rules apply.
This is a place to exchange ideas and network with other health conscience folks, this isn't a forum for heated debate.

...wonder if they've captured the "Aroma of Tacoma"? There is actually a song about it. I hated going to downtown Tacoma because of it. The stench came from the paper pulp plants nearby. (I preferred our trips to the dump to THAT!) I think sulfur is a major component of the smell. Can't hurt to ask.Watch your links! http://www.theologyweb.com/campus/fa...corumetiquette

There was a joke --- A momma skunk was passing the paper mill with her babies, and one of the babies asked "Momma, what is that odor?" Momma responded, "I don't know, but I'd sure love to bottle and sell it!"
The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

So, while there are no routine "ill effects" of this in my own situation, there is certainly the potential for bad stuff to happen, and I try to be wary.The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

Patsy (the mom) had just taken a pill, and it was "stuck" in her throat, so she grabbed the "glass of water".... Since she didn't smell it, it was too late when she took a gulp to try to wash down the pill. She ended up in the hospital overnight over that, and the daughter felt absolutely horrible - though it was obviously not her fault.

Her "proof" is that I'm way too consistent with my results, even though the samples are bar coded, and otherwise not decypherable.
She (in a very good natured way (I think)) wants to know how I'm cheating.
MEANWHILE, the very same pleasant odors I "smell" at home are now associated with the prayer room at Church, only more pleasant.
That smell is kind of like a floral laundry softener smell like putting on a clean t-shirt straight from the dryer.
It's beginning to look psychosomatic. Except, of course, the double-blind tests at the lab are "consistent". (too much so)
Oh, and mercaptan (the agent added to natural gas to make it smell like rotten eggs) officially smells like peaches.The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.
