Has the dollar really slid that far or did a decimal pound slide ?? 73, Dick, W1KSZ On 5/20/2014 1:00 PM, Brooke Clarke wrote: > Hi: > > The UK in recognition of the 300th anniversity of the first Longitude > Prize is now working on another one. > http://www.longitudeprize.org/ > A million pounds is about 16.8 million dollars. >

Boy this is really off target I guess. But the first option on Dementia is actually pretty interesting. As I say way off topic.

Hi: Sorry, it's old age. The US $ amount 16.8 million was correct, the mistake was in the Sterling amount which should have been 10 Million £. I've corrected the subject line.

Dave Dementia would be my thought. We all face that possibility, it can make time stand still or go in reverse or simply disappear. Will say of all of them that actually made me stop and think. How would you do something that could help a person live a better longer life.

Hi Paul: My post that started this was because of the effect of the original longitude prize on keeping time. For the past month I've been reading about the obesity, Type II diabetes, and other metabolic syndrome diseases &etc. It turns out that due to bad science the "low fat" diet has been the U.S. government recommendation for many decades and it was a mistake. If you follow it, you consume a large number of carbohydrates which drive insulin which drives fat and leads to metabolic syndrome. Drinking a can of sugar soda pop, a can of beer or a glass of organic fruit juice has exactly the same effect on your waistline and liver. This diet has killed an uncountable number of people.
