The question is, Russ, why are people so complacent? Too used to our creaturely comforts? Or something more? I know I have read somewhere that Hitler used fluoride to make the German people complacent. You can understand how this happens when fluoride depresses the thyroid. People with depressed thyroids slow down in every way, as the thyroid affects the whole body. Even thinking slows down - BIG TIME. That's how a population is made complacent. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/mad.gif" alt="" />
