To evryone who understands the principles of paleo eating:

Suggestion from a new member:
When you see a posted recommendation that disagrees with paleo principles,
post a very brief explanation why it is not paleo.  That way new members
can begin to understand the priciples, but we won't waste time reading
lengthy debates.  An example of a brief explanation:  "Winter squash can't
be eaten raw, so is not paleo."  This would be very helpful.  Thanks to all.
