Default Breatherians, Living on Light!

Anyone remember the con-woman Australian who claimed to live on light (prana)? Or the woman camping wild in Scotland attempting to do it, who starved herself to death in a tent?

Well someone is at it again in Seattle, a British native. Come on own up, who is it?

Food is a essential for survival, Jennifer Adler, a Seattle nutritionist explained to the Seattle Globalist.

Glad they told us that

Yeah I bet it's someone on here.

Yeah, I remember the Scottish bird who starved herself to death in the woods a few years ago. Daft idea if you ask me. Food is life.

An, but we only suspected that...she probably went to college for a few years to be fully qualified to come up with such pearls of wisdom!

Bunk!
James Randi pilloried an Indian governmental agency for believing the claims of some Guru about living on light.

I'm going to guess she missed the evolution/ natural selection module of her high school biology class, as well as the nutrition module, presumably?

When she says "Light", does she actually mean Chips?

'Cos I could totally live on a diet of Chips.

(Now i want some chips )

Maybe she meant "beer", because most American beer says "light" on the can.

Does this help with your chip craving?

Your link is b0rked in that last one (or so it appears on my screen). Looks like the HTTP part went in twice.

I fixed that, but other links won't copy, I keep pasting the same old image, all post as a URL, not a visible image!

Probably images referenced by or from a database, rather than straight link to the *.gif or *.jpg file..
