My mother was a nutritionist and a huge milk fan. She taught her students that if you stop drinking milk for a period of time your body stops producing an enzyme necessary for it’s proper digestion: thus, milk-exclusion diets can actually lead to dairy intolerance. I’m certainly not implying all intolerances stem from that cause (some could very well be, as you say, reactions to trace chemicals, etc) but it is a possibility. Thus the “find out if you’re allergic by excluding dairy for a time then going back onto it” could actually be self-fulfilling.

Thanks for your example of boldness in calling a spade, a spade, re Evolution.

I find it alway soothe my children when I sing to them. All my six children ratherly ever cries. I sing to them everytime I put them to sleep and incidently I also sing the song you wrote. I now sing that song to my grand-daughter except that I also add grandma and grandpa as well as God loves Amber too. Thanks for your emails.
