Do you all miss this forum topic or is it enough to post articles on Facebook/Twitter? I am trying different ways of posting articles of interest. Let me know!

I always look here first for new articles. Please keep them coming!


This is a great resource for me. Keep them coming. Perhaps more frequently (more posts) less volume (in each post)


I have found them extremely valuable, Kathy... and MND is always the first place I look!


This is great feedback! I'll start posting on this forum topic again, but this time, more frequently with fewer articles per post. I'll post later today.

Thanks for letting me know!!!

Orangutans aren't lazy, just evolved to hang around: NPR http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=128937520

This is an interesting audio (or text) story on orangutans and their caloric efficiency. I posted this since I think there are parallels to humans - think efficiency for survival. Interestingly, orangutans are often obese in zoos where they have a continuous calorie supply and little room for activity.
