First, I've been waiting and waiting and waiting for Stevia to come out on the market. You may know that aspartame gives me horrible migraine auras that make me go blind for up to 45 minutes, and I think it's horribly unsafe. Stevia has been used in Japan for years by millions of people and the FDA is stopping it from being a food additive (although it can be a dietary supplement, therefore labeling it safe and unsafe at the same time).
But Coke might release their product anyway!! This link makes me happy, maybe it will push the FDA to open it to the american public.
In political news, Dick Cheney stands behind the decisions made by the Bush administration on his way out the door, including...
Cheney also told ABC that Guantanamo Bay's detention camp should remain open until the end of the War on Terror. He said he did not know when that would be. Terror, incidentally, has been in existence... forever.
Of waterboarding, Cheney said that he supported the process of getting it cleared. He called waterboarding, "a remarkably successful effort, and I think the results speak for themselves." Actually, they don't, since we have no idea what information waterboarded detainees have provided.
