I find it interesting that white rice always gets the blame laid on it, but there are literally billions of healthy people who eat white rice almost three times daily.

Your ideas are intriguing to me and I wish to subscribe to your newsletter.
So the suggestion is, have stringent environmental demands on the appliance and then have someone buy two? I bet you flush your low flow toilet four times, don't you?
You do realize that all the countries that have nukes DO have nukes pointed at their capital cities, right?
