countries, the 2 clearly correlate. One can conclude from that that boron deficiency is likely a cause of arthritis.

You can conclude no such thing. At the very most it is an observation that might suggest a trial of supplementation to find out whether it is completely unconnected or not.

factor, but it's a big one. Other significant causes include a high carb diet & not eating the right fats.

But that could be the same as linking high cholesterol with the consumption of *homogenised* cows milk? There *could* be other lifestyle differences, not just the milk consumption, even though there appears to be a direct correlation between such cultures that consume homogenised and high cholesterol?

But that could be dangerous, like assuming all vegan's *will* be B12 deficient or any more deficient than most omnivores etc?

So why don't we all know about it?

Ok.

Then how would you know. ;-)

Cheers, T i m

lots of people have tried it. Results have bene good.

again it has been much tried. We know what the deal is.

you tell me

know what?

I've been handymanning for 16 years. I was assembling some flat pack while the man of the house started fitting a curtain rail. Nice bloke, lent him my SDS, gave him some fixings.

Couldn't believe how long it took him. The point is, if you do something often enough & for long enough you get quick at it.

Some of them cut corners / do awful work.

Years ago my sister in law wanted an extra socket to power a washing machin e.

She wouldn?t let me do it and ?got an electrician in? ?

He put in a 13A trailing socket on a bit of flex (I think it had a 13A plug on the other end, don?t remember).

It was just loose inside the cupboard.

I was appalled but said nothing.

Prior to that she had a cooker connection unit complete with 13A socket fit ted.

The electric Board / company said you couldn?t get flush mounted an y more, only surface mount.

I personally think tap flexible connectors are a tool of the devil. But of course the trade love them.

Same idea as when you're concreting and there's nowhere to have shutters round the edge, so you put the shutters somewhere in the area then pull them out and shove more concrete in the holes.

Given the god awful mess of pipeage under my kitchen sink, presumably made incrementally worse by each those hired by previous owners, flexible tap connectors are (sometimes) the only way to go, short of ripping and replacing the lot.

Even then, doing a necessary tap change was a trial, and required cutting away some of the side/back of the cabinet.
