[Sca-cooks] Ah, a new diet plan

[John Kemker]

Ah, but M'Lord Stefan, one must properly *frame* the technique.  Don't 
just explain that you're going to make them cold.  Explain all the 
various ways you're going to make them cold and design items and 
paraphenalia to help them be cold.

Ideas like:
o  Swimming in frigid water
o  Rolling in snow
o  Running in below-freezing weather

See?  And develop specific techniques designed to help them avoid injury 
to muscles while performing these activities.  And special clothing for 
staying cold.  And mental techniques to help them deal with the 
discomfort of the cold.

You could make LOTS of money off of the diet fad crowd, if you spin it 
right!

"Why, it appears that we appointed all of our worst generals to
command the armies and we appointed all of our best generals to edit
the newspapers. I mean, I found by reading a newspaper that these
editor generals saw all of the defects plainly from the start but
didn't tell me until it was too late. I'm willing to yield my place
to these best generals and I'll do my best for the cause by editing a
newspaper." --Robert E. Lee
