So, a few months ago, I mass posted on many newsgroups the idea that
people should start suing THE ATKINS DIET for the dietary disaster the
media has allowed to be advertised and Marketed to America.

Yet, the media has done virtually nothing to try to save Nutritional
Supplements from the wrath of Illinois Senator Durbin's Senate Bill
722.

A few months ago a then Mark_Probert(insert a date)@lumbercartel.com
thought it was a stupid idea that would never happen. Yet, today
(particularly on TODAY) came reports of a Floridian Jody Gorran has
started what will hopefully be millions of lawsuits against ATKINS.
Enough to end the worst diet since the early 1980's FIT FOR LIFE that
preached no fat, dairy, meat or anything but fruits and
vegetables-ignoring any need for Protein.

The reality is both ATKINS and Senate Bill 722 would create an
American Health Crisis that is like what Randy Shilts wrote about in
AND THE BAND PLAYED ON Chapter 2 titled THE BUTCHER'S BILL.  The
eventual tragedy of homosexuals partying in San Francisco's 1980 Gay
Lesbian Parade, unaware of the millions of deaths and eventual deaths
that were about to transcend.

So far Atkins and SB 722 are like the Gay Parades in SF. Media
advertising this Low Carb, eat all the fat and cholesterol you want
and lose weight with no perception that along with the Atkins line of
products will soon come Atkins Cemeteries in every city for those who
would have died.

(Would have) has to be used because maybe with the lawsuit of Jody
Gorran others will come forward and file lawsuits. And hopefully this
Atkins party won't end up in a mass tragedy.

For those on THE ATKINS DIET will probably die if they stay on it too
long. Sort of like how homosexuals in SF would die if they didn't
stop. In 1983 SF's Department of Health Supervisor Mervin Silverman
closed bathhouses for the public safety.
Now two decades later, it's time for the FDA to get Atkins stuff off
the shelf before it's too late. Before there are too many people too
fat, with too much cholesterol for the American Health Care system to
handle.

Although I hope to be the "Randy Shilts against SB 722" Today (on
TODAY) Jody Gorran just became the "Randy Shilts against The Atkins
Diet."

Last night's "Joan of Arcadia" dealt with Joan preventing a potential
Columbine. In the morning came Jody Gorran who quite possibly
prevented a chain of Atkins cemeteries stealing the McDonald's slogan
"Millions served- to their deaths."

And to all those who thought my idea of suing Atkins were never going
to happen. There's no need to apologize. For my activism is a labor of
love (and money if it so happens, but it isn't necessary.) And like
Ali Mcgraw/Ryan O'Neill and Jamie Sale/David Pelletier "Love Means
Never Having To Say, You're Sorry."
