Through most of my life my exercise of choice was running or biking, then stopping at the local park for some sets of pullups, pushups, dips, and other bodyweight exercises. I thought that I was pretty good at the exercise routines that I had worked so hard at, and indeed I was, when compared to the average athlete. I was certainly put in my place, though, when I read , by Paul Wade. I humbly deferred to the master, and put everything I thought I knew aside, and started with “coach” Wade... Read Full Story

I have been aware of the problem of indoor air pollution for quite some time. Eight years ago when I purchased a new Carrier furnace, I added air filtration, UV lights, and humidity control. I wanted the air in my house to be healthy for my family. I learned the hard way a couple of years ago that I didn’t have all my bases covered. I bought a new Wii gaming system for my kids and set it up in the basement. We started to spend a lot more time as a family playing Wii in the basement. Soon... Read Full Story

Well, it happened. I ran out of AIO before my auto re-order arrived. As a desert traveler needs a glass of water, I need my AIO Cellular Nutrition! It’s kind of funny.
