Keep up the fish! I'm traveling and can't possibly keep up with all the posts on this subject, but have read a few. Some thoughts: Surya, you're just a young whippersnapper;-). It's easy to be a healty vegetarian when you're young. Come and see me when you're 55 or so. Last year at the New England Devi Bhava Amma totally shocked me by saying, "You haven't aged a day in ten years!" Once I recovered from the shock, I told her that was because I took after my Mother! Then we had to hug and kiss each other some more 'cause we love each other sooo much. Anyway, the point of this little vignette is that I don't think Amma would have been complementing me on my youthful appearance if she disapproved of my diet:-). But what do I know?
