        I'd post my feet but that might backfire completely in this thread.

          Did any of you really think that it could be avoided?  Let's be realistic here, people.  Human nature is an predictable thing.

            Nah.  I think my original point has been sufficiently reinforced.  That was all I was after.

             

            I hope you find the root of the tight/sore knees, Spin Chick.  Let us know how it goes.

              Do female ostriches run the same as male ostriches?  Or are the mechanics different there two?  What about ostrich hips?  There's much more to be discovered here.

                Its funny that you ask about my 20% efficiency claims. Its easy. I have a four foot walking stride (according to Nobby's own measurements) and you don't.

                 

                This is not a scientific or clinical study.

                  Man, what a horrible nickname that would be.

                    Careful, there, Ostrich Hips, that's how people get pegged with those types of nicknames.

                      I think I could handle being called ostrich hips.  Maybe shorten it to ossie hips.

                       

                      I'm just glad I didn't say pee-pee pants.

                          Of course it is, plenty of clinical journals pubish individual case studies to document arguements or claims.

                           

                          If you had any science background, you'd explain how I do it without claiming I have 6ft legs...

                           

                           

                          And you can't validate your claim with any science, while I actually posted clinical studies to back up what I wrote for the OP. I only challenge you to do the same.

                           

                          The OP asked about her knees, and I gave her science based answers. You didn't.

                           

                          So attacking me again just proves you can't justify your "expertise".

                           

                          Sorry princess, you fail.

                          Experts said the world is flat

                          Experts said that man would never fly

                          Experts said we'd never go to the moon

                           

                          Name me one of those "experts"...

                           

                          History never remembers the name of experts; just the innovators who had the guts to challenge and prove the "experts" wrong

                                Nah, Uncle Jim.  It would fall into the category of 'picture that scares everyone away.'
