I write no prescriptions, just reporting what I read and think. Frequent purchases does not a good product make. My grandfather Elmer questioned the authority that "cigarettes are good for you" and that is why he is alive today.

If you grew up without shoes and developed the muscles in your feet in ankles, then it might - repeat might be less likely that you'd be injured. Here's a test for you - Go out running without shoes for 2 weeks, regularly, and not just around the block. See just how un-injured you are . . . By the way, do you think the scientists at Pearl Izumi, Nike, Asics etc. are just some shmoes that want to sell a pretty shoe? Doesn't work that way. If they don't work, they'll be out of business.
