Trans fats to be phased out in USA, Amiga edited Film about Trans Fats Update

[Amiga_Nut]

That's easy for you to say 4 years after the fact. But the truth remains the same. Tedd was the only one that put real $ on the table to acquire the site. Anyone could have outbid him but no one did or even came close. Even the spanish lesbians showed no interest in 2009. Talk is cheap, dollars are real.

If many people fund one item controlling it usually leads to disputes I find.

@Amiga_Nut

You are right. Even if they would have been able to raise enough money it would have be chaos and you would have seen the site pulled in a million directions. It would have been very messy.

[bbond007]

Not just healthier, but also tastes a million times better

No way. I disagree. The current baked apple pie is awful.

The original deep fried one was awesome.

Way better than any kind of homemade apple pie unless you made your homemade one into a little pocket which you then proceeded to deep fry.

Actually, it's all neatly documented:

Your claim was that a.org would have died if "Tedd" wouldn't have put money on the table. That's bullcrap, obviously - see above link.

It's dying now. A very slow and painfull death.

I cgutjahr want Amiga.org to die now. A very slow and painfull death so I can promote my own Amiga news site.

I updated your grammar mistakes to make them more accurate.




The link you posted in your message does not show enough money to buy the site. The price was much higher than that back in 2009. Also keep in mind a pledge is not the same thing as real money. You are welcome to try and organize another Amiga.org buyout if it makes you comfortable. I seriously doubt you would be able to come up with enough community funds to try and buy it a 2nd time because the site is more valuable now than it was in 2009.

Again, if you truly want to help you can PM me your site suggestions or recommendations to improve Amiga.org. Unlike many other forums site owners on the internet I am actually available and listen to member feedback if they don't have an alternative agenda. I know it's a PM you will never send me but I'm willing to entertain the idea that maybe you will change your mind and want to help the oldest and one of the largest Amiga sites on the internet. Of course there are other great Amiga sites too, EAB comes to mind.

So much for the trans fat hype.

[Kesa]

Dammy, that article seems to be about saturated fats not trans fats.

Anyway this thread is confusing. Why is everyones name turning blue? And why is the owner acting strange?

Will you actually listen to it? What about all the member feedback that has been left in these threads so far? If we reiterate it in PM format, will it actually have any effect?

Yes, the best way to communicate with me is via PM. It avoids all the noise of  the forums and if you PM me it gets added to my long list of future site enhancements and improvements.

Trans Fats and Saturated Fats are very different from each other. Saturated fats occur naturally in food. Trans Fats are man made processed garbage and should be avoided at all costs. They should be taken out of the food supply in the US just like Denmark and other countries in the EU did long ago.

And what hard health data has come out since they banned it in Denmark?   I'm all for eating healthy, but this trans fat seems to be more hype then reality.  If the market doesn't want it, trans fat will be removed from the food supply, just like that unhealthy plastic is no longer available in the US because of consumer wishes.

Now if you want to talk about anti-oxidant foods, that's something most folks can sink their teeth into.

@dammy

There is a ton of hard facts and data that show how unhealthy and dangerous Trans Fats are to the human heart and body. Seek and you shall find.

I already asked you for a price (twice, I think).

Not sure Karlos is still here, so maybe we'd have to search for a new maintainer. But first we need a price tag.

You can't afford it but since you're asking what are you willing to pay? Feel free to PM me the price if you're not comfortable making that public or if you don't care put it right in this thread. Just because I'm curious doesn't mean I'm willing to sell the site. It's not for sale and I'm not looking for buyers.

Didn't say anything about home made.

Anyway, you're serious? You prefer some deep fried apple crap over a properly made apple pie from a good pastry shop? What's the world coming to

I'm a fit and healthy conscious person who eats healthy and is quite active. But as much as i don't want to i have to agree that deep fried stuff tastes better than home made foods. That's probably why there's an obesity epidemic. Trans fats taste good!
