Yeah, I did know the "bigger meant more links" - I just prefer more "old-fashioned" indexes like the one on my blog which just lists all the topics and then in parens show how many entries for that topic. Tag Clouds are just too annoyingly frou-frou for me, .

His attitude towards towards AS comes through loud and clear in that diet soda blog post under that tag.
I did look at his entry. I don't drink diet soda or any sweetened sort of drinks. I don't like the taste of sweet drinks in general.

I mean he talks (in one of the things I read) about how eating something like quinoa alone causes a much bigger insulin spike than if it's buffered with fat (I'm talking from memory so may have the facts a little skewed, so hope you get the general gist). And since I only use AS (and never splenda) with plenty of fat I've wondered if that has an impact as well.

Anyway, all hypothetical at this point since I'm just thinking about it, and it will be weeks before I have an internet connection that can support watching videos.
