If you're waist deep in China White, you may as well teach your kids about it, get them as much knowledge as possible, and how to stay clear of it. Letting choose a different path than you is IMHO the minimum you should be doing.

As I understand it, the individual vs the group situation is complicated by their shared genetic pool. I'd imagine it as having dozens of clones of myself, and one of them is tasked with reproducing for the rest of us. It sounds like a

I am aware of that for exercising, but was ignorant of what "intense" actually means in this context. And you're right. Looking around, the simplest wording I get: > the intensity must be high. This means that you need to

Thing is, changing what the button says doesn't change the fine prints nor the central issues. A ton of stores just moved away from the "buy" language and replaced the buttons with "order", "add to cart",

You're right both can be logically true. Now the tension doesn't reside in the logic, but in the intent of the statements. First statement minimizes the problem's impact, second argues it's still worth tackling.
