[Torvald Von Mansee]

When I was living in Belgium, I very rarely saw a fat person compared to back home in Maryland. Why? Well, part of it is a superior public transport system. Also, Belgium is FLAT and has bike lanes next to all major surface roads w/barriers to keep drivers from flattening you.

The strange thing is I went to Jacksonville for a while, and noticed that they also had bike/walking trails next to the major roads (at least where I was), and it was flat, yet there were a LOT more fat people than back home in MD!!! And the weather is better than in Belgium/Maryland, too!!!
