Three minutes on one episode of 60 Minutes (about the "caveman diet") is far less than the average commercial for Axe body spray is seen in one single day.  Paleo is still treated as a marginal phenomenon: here's my take on why.

As far as talk radio, it's mostly fake controversy.  I was pleasantly surprised to be allowed to generate some real controversy.

I agree with your points about education and parenting: the way we raise children is just as evolutionarily discordant as our diet, with even more disastrous results.

If you can follow my articles here at gnolls.org, you should have no trouble following The Gnoll Credo.  You can test this by downloading and reading the first 20 pages from the publisher.

Much appreciated, and I love being outside in winter!  But I'll probably either bring or rent some XC touring skis.  Walking in snowshoes makes me feel like a zombie.
