: AAAGH!!!! I only wish I could use the language I have in mind. Read those damned outdated references I mentioned. (But then you are the great Andy Highfield and you know better) (reptiles... Mammals... reptiles... Mammals... no differance)(Not!)

Now, listen, EJ. This is really simple. I have no idea WHY you persist in posting this argumentative and ridiculous stuff, but the only effect is is having is making you look rather silly. There is no need for this type of attitude.

Why you chose to "pick a fight" on a subject where you plainly know very little, and are just picking out misunderstood snippets from textbooks to back your very illogical conclusions beats me...

In any event, the FACTS are that carnivores have a typical stomach pH of <2.0, humans average about 3.0, and herbivorous mammals and reptiles tend to be in the >5.0-6.5 range. This is just how it is - for sound biological reasons....

Attempts to prove otherwise are just plain crazy.
