I just had a very quick look at it. Rather complicated! (a lot of boxes,
arrows...)

OK, that's more satisfying (except that it is hard to avoid eating a lot of
fruits; if I follow my denatured instinct with selected fruits, I invariably
end up eating a fruit-only meal).

Sorry, maybe I should start studying biology (more useful to discuss
things around nutrition and health).

Yes, but I don't trust my instinct anymore regarding the amount of fruit,
for the reason I mentioned. Sure, the experiments of Barry Sears were
done with people eating cooked food, and not instinctively, but I believe
there is some underlying truth in it.

OK, but I am not. Everyone is different.

Sorry to talk too much about an off-topic subject, but you seem to have
ultra-rightist views. Believe me, market rules won't solve any problems.
If unions of workers hadn't fought hard to defend their rights, we would
still be working 60 hours/week, with poor conditions, etc.

?? You seem pretty quick at categorizing people in free/not free,
responsible/passive, positive/negative, good/bad... The functioning
of your brain follows quite accurately the lines of manicheism.

I disagree. That's

problem [I used figlet for that. Nice, isn't it?]

Remember that I am now in the US, and I don't care about Orkos since I
can't order from them. Maybe some people at Orkos have freely chosen to
work at Orkos, and are happy with that. But the article in L'Express
clearly shows that a few were frustrated, and became angry towards Burger,
after having worked at Orkos for a while.

Best wishes,
