That I would never have gotten this heavy if I hadn't had access
to breads and sugars.  So certainly in a general sense, if I had
lived in paleo times---not only for the food, but also the need
to exercise in order to survive---the lifestyle itself would have
prevented my obesity.

(Hmm, I wonder....isn't there somebody I could sue, especially
someone with deep pockets?  Surely it's not *my* fault....Ooh, I
know----I'll sue Haagen Dazs!)
