STEVE BAYT (Parma/Brook Park, Ohio)
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
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
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."
