Not to re-open the whole fat debate - OK, I am - but I just came back from an evening at a major Amsterdam concert hall with about 2000 typical Dutch folks, mostly 40-60 with a few younger thrown in.

I didn't see one grossly obese person anywhere. Maybe one in ten were on the chunky side, but compared to a Dallas shopping mall, it's another world.

Good thing Americans can feel safe enough to die a premature death from "normal" unnatural causes.
