Ken,

I really find this to be a tiresome exchange since you keep drawing
inferences that were never in the least implied, suggested, hinted at, or
stated by the actual words of my original message.  Methinks you read way
too much into what was so very little.  And now you're going further out on
tangents and offering irrelevancies (from cashews to physiological effects
to computer monitors to moving to the Amazon) that have no bearing on
anything I originally or actually said.  If you think they somehow bolster
an argument, I have no idea what argument you're advancing or why you even
think there needs to be one based on what I said.

One last time, I direct you to William's original post:
* "Most modern fruit ain't paleo.  Blueberries seem OK." *

It doesn't take a close reading here or a big brain to determine two things
about the message:  The writer obviously recognizes that most modern fruit
ain't quite the same as it was in paleo times; but he doesn't quite
recognize that blueberries fall into the category of most modern fruit--that
is, he thinks they are somehow more paleo than most other fruit.  At least
that is how I take it; and if I am wrong in interpreting this message, I
hope William will come forward to correct me.

Now, one last time to paraphrase myself:  *Modern blueberries are no more
paleo than any other modern fruit.*

All is clear now?  Is there really anything controversial or incorrect here?

I didn't say they aren't good for a person or not healthy to eat, etc.,
etc., etc.  There's no need to make far-fetched claims of claims I never
made.
