Has it really been nearly a whole year? I think my aversion to this format is common to most people, who prefer to simply hit the share / tweet / like / recommend widgets on their favorite web pages. Also, I have trouble concentrating and being quick with my posts, making it difficult to causally post something while I work. It becomes too involved, and detracts from my work.
So, I will be trying from now on. But don't expect anything spectacular... as if anything on here has ever been "spectacular."

The results show people sometimes assume organic foods are lower in calories and so it's OK to indulge in organic cookies more often than regular ones. Exercise was also deemed less necessary after eating organic desserts.
