Thanks for that. You can still find it via the Wayback Machine here:

Wow! I knew he had a double chin, but it has gotten worse. He clearly also
has the crowded teeth (and likely therefore a high, arched palate and narrow
jaw), including fairly prominent "buck teeth," that Weston Price recognized
as a characteristic of the modern diet. The high resolution also reveals
that he has some bumps on his skin. I feel bad about the physical
deterioration his diet is obviously causing him. Unfortunately, he is
committed to it for other than health or scientific reasons, so he probably
won't change it dramatically no matter how much his health deteriorates.

Well, I wouldn't go that far, but he clearly fairs poorly in a comparison
with the slender Dr. Cordain.
