Hmmm......Burundi........ ... ...

Sooozie, this country is home to the world's largest colonies of flying lemurs......... :huh:

Also, I was delighted to read about the little pygmies who were the first inhabitants of Burundi, and now make up only five per cent of its population. Their name?

The Twa.

I LOVE THIS! The little Twa people. 'Tis excellent, yes it is........... .. :lol:

DO NOT go to Burundi with Sam Hill.........methinks it is a setup.......and the lemurs have been in on it from the beginning! :o

Ummmmm..........what happened to all the Twa? :ph34r:

curlyfries Contributor
The system failed around 3:23 pm (Pacific time) on Friday, November 21. Efforts to recover the database were not successful, and the board was restored from a backup taken around 1 am Pacific time on Friday.

Posts made during that period of about 14-1/2 hours are permanently lost, as are any personal messages sent during that time. Personal messages that were sent before the backup which you read on Friday will appear "new" and you will likely read them again as "new."

NOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!

Yep, I am excited! :) But absolutely no one else in Psillyville is, quite understandably. .. . .... (POeter? I know you don't follow the NHL........how about the Argos?)

And yes! Depending on how and where the Twa have settled throughout Burundian history, the numbers may fluctuate.......say, 3 -8%.........

Well, they don't have opposable thumbs, but these Burundi lemurs are the variety that can fly.. . . ...the only ones in the world that can do so - - glide great distances from tree to tree. This MUST be significant. And what of Sam Hill Manhead? I haven't noticed him flying....but he does scuba. He also knows not a SPOT of trivia - - sat at our empty seat at World Trivia Night, and was of absolutely no help. Got some passersby laughing, though. Will post the pics. . . . ..

      Dang......did it again and yeah I should admit I am 63 with clumsy phone thumbs. I started feeling better quickly and a doctor a year later said I had to eat  poison (gluten) every day for a month so he could formally diagnose me and NO FREAKING WAY. I couldn't then and can't imagine putting my body through that crap (no pun intended) on purpose ever again.  Why ingest poison for a month to have some doctor say Hey, All you Have To Do Is Never Eat poison Again..

      15 years ago my best friend 'diagnosed' me as Celiac. Her little nephew had been formally diagnosed and her observations of me dealing with brain fog, stomach problems and other stuff had her convincing me to try going gluten free. Oh my heavens, within 3 days, no lie, I felt human again. Took me about a y

      It seems like you have two choices--do a proper gluten challenge and get re-tested, or just go gluten-free because you already know that it is gluten that is causing your symptoms. In order to screen someone for celiac disease they need to be eating gluten daily, a lot of it--they usually recommend at least 2 slices of wheat bread daily for 6-8 weeks before a blood screening, and at least 2 weeks before an endoscopy (a colonoscopy is no used to diagnose celiac disease). Normally the blood panel is your first step, and if you have ANY positive results there for celiac disease the next step would be to take biopsies of your villi via an endoscopy given by a gastroenterologist.  More info on the blood tests and the gluten challenge beforehand is below: The article includes the "Mayo Clinic Protocol," which is the best overall protocol for results to be ~98% accurate. Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day:   Not to discourage you from a formal diagnosis, but once you are diagnosed it may lead to higher life and medical insurance rates (things will be changing quickly in the USA with the ACA starting in 2026), as well as the need to disclose it on job applications. While I do think it's best to know for sure--especially because all of your first degree relatives should also get screened for it--I also want to disclose some negative possibilities around a formal diagnosis that you may want to also consider.

      Yes.  Now, if you hit your finger with a hammer once, wouldn't you do your best not to do it again?  You have identified a direct connection between gluten and pain.  Gluten is your hammer.  Now you have to decide if you need a medical diagnosis.  Some countries have aid benefits tgat you can get if you have the diagnosis, but you must continue eating a gluten-normal diet while pursuing the diagnosis. Otherwise the only reason to continue eating gluten is social. There are over 200 symptoms that could be a result of celiac disease.. Celiac Disease and Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity  both cause multiple vitamin and mineral deficiency.  Dealing with that should help your recovery, even while eating gluten.  Phosphatidyl Choline supplements can help your gut if digesting fats is a problem,  Consider that any medications you take could be causing some of the symptoms, aside from gluten.
