   Many years ago I heard of an herbal solution which when
 rubbed on the arms, etc. would cause mosquitoes not only
 to refuse to bite but would actually convert them into
 vegans.  In other words they would seek out leaves and
 grasses for a meal instead of blood (yechh).
 Unfortunately I cannot remember the formula.  Any
 assistance in this area would be appreciated.

re: vegetarian wedding.

Well, gee, if I was coming to your wedding I would hope to have Indian
(vegetarian) food.  That would be the best!  As for drinks, you could serve
non-alcoholic champagne or sparkling water or sparkling apple juice as well
as the regular kinds.  U.S. weddings have all kinds of (to me) tacky
traditions which I think you should feel free to adopt, adapt, or forget
about entirely.   The more true it is to your ethnic origins, the more I
would think I would enjoy your wedding.

Congratulations and have fun planning everything!

Have you or your friend been tested for anemia?  Sometimes, anemia
can be the cause of tiredness.

But beware of people that say you are "too skinny" or "look sick".
For example, an elder person that I know constantly tells me that I "look sick".

They are looking at you through their own view of what is considered 
"normal".  However, what is "normal" is very subjective.

During some weekends, I've have been known to bicycle 100 miles in a
day without feeling very tired, while this elder person gets winded going
up a flight of stairs and walking to the bathroom and back is 
considered the exercise for the day.
And I'm the one who is "sick"! (Go figure that one out!)

I'll be in the above areas soon, visiting my aunt who hates to cook, is

be too keen on many of the things I cook. (I'll give it a try, though).
I'm hoping to find places to eat that are either veg or have a decent

Also, I'll be in Miami for 2 days after being on the Gulf coast. Any

Hi,

Perhaps you might look for other foods with a low glycemic index
that are also low in fatty acids (unlike peanuts, which have a very low index,
but also have a higher level of fatty acids.)

Refined sugar has an index of 100, and is the worst.
I vaguely remember that peanuts are between 20 and 40.

You might try brown rice, which has a glycemic index around 60.

[I found this information on the glycemic index in an old issue
of Muscle & Fitness.]

Why?  The humans are "free ranging", and can move freely in their pens.
In fact, it's easier to obtain their blood when they're outside enjoying
nature.  We mosquitoes have no evidence that our farming these creatures
causes them anything but the most minor irritation, and they appear to be
otherwise happy.  Plus, our forefathers have always told us that blood is
an essential part to our reproductive strategy.  Of course we need blood!

I wanted to publicize a *terrific* restuarant my family and I ate at
tonight -- the Chinese "Vegetable Garden", in Maryland, outside of DC
(in the USA).  The Vegetable Garden is on the third floor of the White
Flint Mall.

This restuarant is exculsively vegetarian--in fact, I believe it is
exculsively *vegan* (I won't swear to the wontons or the fortune cookies,
but even the "egg rolls", according to the menu, are made without 
eggs).  And the food there is delicious!  There are DOZENS of dishes
there!

The White flint Mall is a bit south of the White Flint Metro stop
on the red line.  If you're ever in DC, check it out!

The trouble with this is that it is human nature to become desensitized
by repeated distress.  Sure, the child will be bothered the first few
times, but after a while, animal death will be as routine and unemotive
as dead Russians in a 007 film.

Fight ants with mint leaves! This at least has worked with me. Grow a
mint plant, take some leaves of the plant and strew the leaves on the ants
and their route. You won't see them again.

This was told to me once by a friend and I could not believe it first.
Then I tried it and it worked (these were ants who intruded the
kitchen). Don't ask my why!

Rickets is due to lack of vitamin C which is caused by insufficient
vegetables and fruits in your diet. British sailors used to eat lemons
/ limes to combat this while at sea, hence the name limey.

Not even!  I have been a lacto ovo vegetarian all my life,
33 years, and this is not a problem, except when I'm sick,
which really isn't all that often.  When I do get tired, its
cause I work too many hours in a highly stressfull job, and
have to commute in heavy traffic and I hate the city/burbs.

I rarely eat eggs, and drink only skim milk, and try to 
stick to low fat cheese.  ( I have high cholesterol--hereditary
thing).  I don't take multivitamins, cause I can never 
remember to take them.

Where I went to high school, it was a boarding church
school, and no meat was served there.  All meals were
lacto ovo vegetarian, and no one there was "weak" or
"thin" unless they just happen to be pre-disposed to
that anyway.

I think maybe you just aren't getting the right things
to eat, or not enough to eat, or maybe you are sick, or
maybe just predisposed to be that way.

Hi,

Here in the netherlands there are some people who got polio
in the last couple of weeks. These people were not protected
by vaccination because of religious reasons. These non-vaccinated
people are probably the reason that polio still exsists in
our country. Every 15 years or so there is an outburst of 
people becomming infected or ill. The polio vaccin is produced
by letting a modified version of the polio virus grow in cells
taken from fertilised chicken eggs. How do convinced vegans
think about this. Do they object to the use of eggs in vaccin
production and will not have them or their children vaccinated?
Or do they think that the risk of getting infected is greater
than the objections against the use of chicken eggs?
