    NGOs Decry Industry-Driven Policymaking

    GENEVA, SWITZERLAND - January 22 - Non-governmental organizations (NGOs) today hailed the adoption
    of a World Health Organization (WHO) Executive Board resolution recommending that the 57th World
    Health Assembly in May 2004 endorse a Global Strategy on Diet, Physical Activity and Health.
    However, public interest NGOs also raised concerns about ongoing attempts by the food industry to
    undermine the Global Strategy, and about broader questions of conflicts of interest within the
    world's foremost health body. Such concerns are also emerging in the Executive Board's debate on a
    new WHO policy for relations with NGOs.

    The rest are in those places facetiously called the funny farms. You know, the same ones that were
    kidnapped by aliens....

    Are you saying that all of these NGOs are all run by mental defectives or by people who believe in
    alien abductions. Your one silly little smart-ass comment seems to discount the opinions of some
    very qualified people from around the world. Is this what you intended your one smart-ass comment to
    do? Or are you just a complete idiot?

    Well, TC, I see that the quality of your comments have increased lately?

    Did that bug finally pop out of your [censored]?

    Just my opinion. But, I am *right* as usual!

    Glad to see that you are following my postings so closely. Keep it up, you might learn something.
    That is if you are able to learn something, you know, with that mental defect and all.
