What I constantly see is a situation where it's 95% diet and 5%
hereditary -
and yet all of the 95% think they belong to the 5% - ie "it's not my
fault -
and nothing can be done about it"

Well, we're gonna have a serious go at discerning the difference. Day One
of my new diet is complete -- lots of fruit and vegetables, very little
salt, no red meat. I feel positively *burp* fruity...

I'm going to forego taking the meds for now, and go to my follow-up doctor's
visit in a month. We'll see if the BP is any different.

If it's not, after a serious month of dieting, I'll quietly take my
medicine, dammit.
