"a new study argues that humans did not master fire until about 400,000 years ago" [instead of the 1.8-1.9 million years ago that Wrangham claims]

I really need to get onto doing those essays for rawpaleodiet.com. At the moment, it's not good enough re attracting new members.

Except the ones caused by others 

dang cars.

I eat coconuts as my main plant food. Once I got adapted to its laxitive effect, it can really work wonders. I eat about half a coconut a day now

Well hey hey i'm Techydude, some of you all know me from my posts:

I am:
- An electronic fan and electronic music lover/raver

Take it from a former vegan, vegetables are nutritionally inferior and the body will slowly deteriorate as a result of consuming too much vegetation and seeds/nuts and too little meat and other animal products.

Interesting, thank you.  You mention that MCFAs are more easily handled (than the long-chain fatty acids in animal fats).  Would butter then, with its many shorter-chain fatty acids such as butyric acid be more easily handled as well?  Or cream? 

You must remove all the water from the fat which requires that you render it at a temperature above the boiling point of water.  I render about 300 lbs of fat per year and I keep my final highest temperature around 240F (115C).  This is high enough to remove the water in a resonable time but low enough that the fat doesn't burn.

OTT...

That is the duration that I expect for it, 2-3 days.  How much fat did you consume?  Was it all raw, was any cooked?  Did you take anything else, such as supplements, water with lemon, etc??

The rest of my time I am in Oxford (actually just outside), which is where I am now. I checked with what I considered would be my best bet, a butcher's selling mostly organic meat. They told me the cows are grassfed in the summer, but in the winter, i.e. now, they are fed on grains.
What do you think of this? Give me some advice please.
Thanks,
Sam
