I had considered synvisc for my knees (at about 50% cartilage loss - one side of each knee is basically bone-on-bone, the other side still has cartilage). My orthopedic specialist basically said it would do nothing for me. If the wear was more even, and not as pronounced, he would have...

THere are a *few* medical compounds that are inherently unstable - sadly I can't remember what they are at this moment - (brain fart), but the vast majority of chemicals, organic or inorganic, tend to be stable for *many* years, and yes, sometimes expiry dates are only there to meet the...

Presser - in all the years I've been on this site, the number of reliability issues has been minimal. I've had more problems with *FACEBOOK* than your site. Your push for excellent service extends not only to your products but this site as a whole. The fact that you even *apologize*, unlike...

Interesting...given that good old "pump n pose" was based on MCT oil, and *liquid* coconut oil (not the one that solidifies at room temp) is essentially MCT oil. Of course, if not *sterilized* or particulate free, it's not injectable quality.....sigh...people...

EMW14 - I too would like to discuss it more - but this discussion *is* dragging the NFL thread off topic, no argument there. *Should* you wish to continue the discussion, I'm more than willing to do it as PM's. I'm a firm believer in discussing differences - we may never agree on everything -...

Interesting - so I'm basing my statements on facts, and so are you - which facts do you have that contradict what I have said? Do you have facts showing that the justice system, from cops to judges, treat african-americans exactly the same as Caucasians? That in the absence of programs to...

Really, why is that? Is anything I have said inaccurate, unprovable, or wrong? Or does it just not align with your particular world-view?

Affirmative action policies were put in place *because* of systematic racism - you do know it wasn't *that* long ago, that African-Americans weren't even allowed *into* some schools, and jobs, etc. The laws were changed - you think that makes it any easier for them to get in? Unless you...

Welcome Jimitry! Etes-vous plus comfortable en Français? I know German and Dutch are official languages there too....but don't know Dutch, and just a *little* German? :)

Well, actually the first amendment *does* still apply to you - as the *only* thing the first amendment does is protect you from is the *government*. Your employer can still have their own rules. I am not saying that the NFL can't fine them, or fire them - but *legally* they can't *force* them...

Which is part of the problem. Everyone gets passed of if someone does something they have a right to do, but you don't like. Goes both ways - the right screaming about taking a knee, and the left screaming about people saying things they don't like. When the President's opinion is that...

I guess I'll be the lone dissenting opinion.... The interesting thing in this thread is that everyone seems to forget one thing - There are soldiers and veterans that *support* them *because* they are using the rights that said soldiers fought for. They aren't disrespecting the anthem - they...

Speaking as a chemist - you can *tell* when an oil has gone rancid. I suspect low grade castor oil would go rancid fairly quickly, but USP grade? When I was still working in the lab chem industry - my company purchased the stock of another that was closing - they had castor oil they had down...

You know this actually makes sense. I tend to grow in jumps - and those jumps have tended to be when I have gone from a work situation where I was barely maintaining caloric intake due to the sheer level of activity to when it switched, to one where I *could* consume more than the minimal...
