I followed the link to its original place of publication.  Oak Park, Michigan, USA.  Michigan is such a derelict place.  Right up there with Minnesota, Wisconsin, Illinois, California and New Jersey in terms of its ability to micro-manage itself into financial, social, and ethical bankruptcy...

A book recently came out entitled Primal Diet, Primal Mind by Nora Gedgaudas.  It is not related to Aajonus V's Primal Diet, and from the interviews I've heard it sounds like a melding of the Weston A Price Diet and a more typical Paleo Diet.  Anyone read the book yet, and want to offer any thoughts?

I prefer shagbark hickory, white oak, white ash and eastern hophornbeam for bows.  They're dense woods and are fairly common around where i live.

I can probably run for a bit over an hour, and do enjoy doing these longer runs too.  I run barefoot (actually barefoot, not "barefoot" wearing minimalist shoes or Vibram FiveFingers) and my feet are still in the re-strengthening phase, so I can't go quite as long as I'd like before my form starts to suffer.  I'll keep at it though, and I trust that my feet's strength will improve and I'll eventually reach the 2 and 3 hour marks, and longer.

I echo Ioanna's preference to run on a completely empty stomach.  I purposely run in the morning, since I usually don't eat until 11:00 or 12:00.  I get to run on an empty stomach, then load up on calories with a mix of raw honey and raw bone marrow before filling up with a 0.5 kg of meat or so.  I usually drink a liter or two of water while running, or immediately after.  I've found this to be a great wake-up routine.

Since most of us don't live in Africa, I wonder if we should be exploring what tubers are edible raw where we live?  I am particularly interested in wild edibles, and eat fair amounts of jerusalem artichoke, burdock root, dandelion root, wild carrot, cattail, and curly dock.  That said, plant foods more generally or roots/tubers specifically never make up the majority of my diet, either by mass or by calories.

I'm building my site at www.DeepGreenResilience.com using KompoZer, a free drag-and-drop, what-you-see-is-what-you-get web design tool.  It seems to work well, although it does have a few bugs that have thus far been easy to deal with.

As far as hosting, I host on FatCow's servers (www.fatcow.com).  I've found them to be reasonably priced and reliable, and have no complaints.

I eat wild plants.  Pretty much whatever's in season.  I spend a lot of time outdoors, so am constantly exposed to poison ivy.  Eating a few young leaves each spring helps to desensitize me to the oil, so I don't constantly get rashes.

I voted for Barr & Root, so Obama's not my fault either.  But Obama's better than McCain & Palin (who didn't stand a chance in hell of winning anyway).

I'd vote for Ron Paul if I saw his name on the ballot.

Actually, I've been on the forum for over a year.  I started with the username Eric Garza, then had it changed to Sitting Coyote.  I started a new account with the name Eric to find a balance between the security of anonymity and offering my real name.
