I dunno if I believe that last one... then again, counting calories has *never* made any sense to my body - I go up when I should go down, and vice-versa. The exception is only if I go *way* over the calorie number in eating... but who needs to count when it's *that* obvious?

Number 4 contained a pet peeve of mine. While 90% died then, 80% live now. It's apples and oranges and makes you convert dying to living, which would confuse many people. Why not just say that while 90% died then, only 20% die now? Or better yet, say that while 10% lived then, 80% live now--not only easier to understand but much more positive and encouraging.
