When you insert a link to a page or an image in another website, the browser will not inform that website about who you are.

You may be wondering how affiliates are identified by their vendors when people click links within their sites. The answer is that what you click on in this case are not simple links. They are routines normally prepared and supplied to them by their vendors which sends their identity to them.

I'm sorry, Samuel. But I just can't agree that that's all there is to it. In addition to the other reasons I noted (dehydration being an especially critical factor), I just do not think that as long as we're getting enough protein in our diet and take a supplement (especially when so few contain EFA's), we're ok thinking we get all the fat we need from our body fat.

While i understand watching fats more than some of us here do, I don't think it's safe to say that the body just "ignores" a dramatic lack of dietary fat and carbs by simply using body fat instead. There are many good reasons to balance our protein with fats and fiber to a much much more healthy ratio than that.

Bottom line, I think that what's wrong with Kimkins is much much more than the lack of sufficient protein and inability to sustain the diet and weight loss.

Having 'net connection problems. Just got an email from Kimmer that I'd been a member too long for a refund--I replied that I had not asked for one and told her the allegations of spying were scary.

For what it's worth, robinb is actively participating in the fascination thread. That explains to me why she's so upset about any posssible tracking measures

"Troubling us".. that's just creepy. (again with the creepy stuff.. lol) Why is posting anything on some website that is not the kk website troubling them anyway?

I keep coming back to the same point in my head.. their "us against them", anyone speaking out is just not tough enough for them, or wants greasy cheeseburgers or cupcakes (like that Cutie person! <laughs>). It's almost pathological.. the lengths some of the members (and I say SOME! Don't anyone twist this into "morgan says all kk members are insane! yadda yadda bs bs) are going to in an effort to retain their group psychosis.

This will make a fabulous case study for grad school methinks. I need to start archiving this stuff!

Keeping you in your memberships keeps you on a short leash most likely, especially if your movements are being tracked.
