And, interestingly, HFSC and Cane Sugar (Sucrose), differ by only 10% in the respective fructose and glucose mix. I suspect it wouldn't have mattered, otherwise they would have warned of the (nonexistnt) devastating effect of apple juice (90% Fructose/10%glucose) or pear juice (70%fructose/30%sucrose) or the use of honey (53% fructose) in sweetening your afternoon tea.

HFCS is (depending on the grade) generall 55% fructose / 42(ish)% glucose, and some small amounts of other sugars. Corn is the donor plant.

In comparison, Apple sugars are 90% fructose and Pears are 70% fructose, way above HF corn syrup sugars. Honey is about 53% (very, very close). None of those appear to be in the "oh my God we're gonna die" list for worrying that you're brain doesn't realize it's full yet.

It's worth noting that corn starch is coverted to HFCS using hydrochloric acid (the same acid found in the human stomach), followed by a water washing, followed by an enzymatic conversion of dextrose (similar to the same process which is used in baking bread, where enzymes convert starch to simple sugars like fructose to be used by the yeast in the fermentation process), followed by water washing and distillation. It's the same process used for countless "all natural" products which we have consumed for thousands of years, but done more precisely and on a much larger scale.

It will still make you fat if you eat too much of it, but it's not magical and doesn't have some insurmountable effect on the brain. No more than a good steak, a loaf of awesome fresh bread, or a decadent wedge cheese. You'll eat way more of all of those than you need before your brain tells you you're full.

Gah, stupid fingers; Fructose and Glucose (sucrose being f+g, of course)

And they're present in significant quantites in the final HFCS product? The chemical information I've seen on HFCS from food processing shows different G/S ratios, but never anything other than glucose and sucrose as constituents.

By definition, if the internet is down I am NOT okay.

Nothing says luxury like simulated wood grain accents.

You're absolutely right! The best known Tesla I'm aware of died at age 78:

I'm not sure if there are any that made to be 100.

It has nothing to do with nude photos of Natalie Portman either.

You've clearly missed the TEA party revolution. "Angry young men with impacted reasoning abilities" is one of their recruiting slogans.

Sure it's good to have fewer people behind bars...if you happen to be people. But corporations run many jails now, and depend on your tax dollars to simply put food on the table for their corporate families. If there are no inmates, who will make money feeding them $0.86 meals, or use 19th century methods of medical care to maximize profits, or make payments on their newly built facilities? It's still a young industry. Won't you think of the corporate children?

I say it's time we stand up and put more people behind bars. For you. For Me. For the corporations. Because when corporations suffer, we all feel the hurt.*

*not really, but it seems like a good slogan

(that was the idea; too subtle, I guess)

I quoteth from the text:

"Parents may be held directly liable, however, for their own negligence in failing to supervise or control their child with regard to conduct which poses an unreasonable risk of harming others."

citation: Assurance Co. of America v. Bell, 108 Ga. App. at 766-767 (4) (“A
parent may be guilty of primary negligence in failing to exercise reasonable care to
prevent a child under his control from creating an unreasonable risk of harm to third
persons, where he has knowledge of facts from which he should reasonably anticipate
that harm will otherwise result.

You'll have to look up the big words in the dictionary yourself, I don't have time to do all of your thinking for you.

If they are a minor, are they not subject to legal proceedings?

It has been generally held that, in civil matters, the parents and/or guardians are financially liable for damaged caused by a minor dependent.

Why buy the city when you only need to buy the city manager?

Part of the dumb fuck right wing, I see. You should learn more about the government you hate (and the FMLA) and the corporations you love (and why they don't value you enough to buy you better healthcare).
