Tejek, the kids in California are very overweight. I was at a park over lunch and there were a bunch of school kids. They could barely run. They were so out of shape. It was stunning. It makes my generation look like a bunch of marathon runners. You never see kids running around in Silicon Valley. It looks really unhealthy. I don't get what's happening. Its not like things have changed dramatically.....from when I was a kid, all I heard is that we watch too much tv/games and need to be out doing more exercise. But the current generation seems to be taking the inactive thing to a whole new level. I've posted it before.......some MDs are saying the current generation of kids will not live as long as their parents if they continue to follow this track. ted
