Are you freakin' kidding me? Just like you never suggested we swallow mouthfulls of salt, I never argued the "basic physiology" that too much salt = dehydration, too little salt = dehydration.
Somewhere I think we had a miscommunication.# :unsure:

No miscommunication. I started this thread, commenting that I didn't realize addingd salt to water was a good thing in dry places. You stated that this fact 'discredited' the article, and went on to give a little science lesson about why people shouldn't drink salt-water as it would dehydrate them, in all circumstances, which turned out to be wrong.

So....after reading from what you said that this CNN article actually SUGGESTS that a person drink salt water to attempt to hydrate themselves, I'm not even gonna bother to read the rest -- that really discredits it.

Why not just apologize for making a stupid statement talking out of your ass and save what's left of your tattered reputation here?

My "lesson" didn't turn out to be wrong. I was right. I told people that too much salt water does in fact dehydrate you, which is true. I also did go on to agree with "Bring Back Shantz" that the body DOES require a small amount of salt water to function properly.
Moreover, I really don't care what you think of me or my "tattered reputation", because you go out of your way to blatantly try and pick out any mistakes I may make when posting here, or even call me out and say I'm "talking out of my ass".
I'm still a fairly new member, and this isn't the best way to welcome new peopel to join your community.
I'm trying to be an active member here and participate in intelligent discussions, but I see that's few and far between. I can't say me experience here so far has been the best, and I'm sure your webmaster here, assuming he/she knows how to conduct themselves in a reasonable manner, wouldn't be too pleased to see you treating people this way.
So, in the future, I'd appreciate it if you just not directed your posts towards me.
Okay? Thanks buddy!
