Guest guest Posted August 24, 2002 Report Share Posted August 24, 2002 Try Splenda, it's a very good sugar substitute made from sugar. No calories. It can be used in cooking, too, and so far as I know there is no campaign against its use, either. I'm diabetic, among other things, and have used Splenda for several years now with no harmful effects. It tastes like sugar, and is even beginning to show up in products -- Royal Crown Cola products for instance -- n place of the much-maligned Equal / aspartame.

War is the parent of armies; from these proceed debts and taxes. And armies, and debts, and taxes are the known instruments for bringing the many under the domination of the few. In war, too, the discretionary power of the Executive is extended. Its influence in dealing out offices, honors, and emoluments is multiplied; and all the means of seducing the minds, are added to those of subduing the force of the people. The same malignant aspect in republicanism may be traced in the inequality of fortunes, and the opportunities of fraud, growing out of a state of war...and in the degeneracy of manners and morals, engendered by both. No nation could preserve its freedom in the midst of continual warfare. " --James Madison, April 20, 1795 (Works. Vol. 4, Pp. 491-2) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
