Speaking of floating shit. lol

I ran the Boston Marathon with a doctor who was both president of the American Medical Joggers Ass'n and an assistant coroner in Los Angeles county. (That was 1974, and for the life of me I can't remember his name right now)

He told a group of doctors and me at a seminar, before the run, that almost all of the heart attack vicitms he had seen as coroner were deficient in silicon.

He urged we take silicon supplements or drink a lot of beer.

"You have enough silicon," he said, "if your stool floats."
