Btw, is walking good for plantar sufferer? I don't know I just dont want to aggravate the inflammation.. carbo arh...yalor I ate rice as in full bowl rice more than last time..sugar I think I m quite in control..any idea if peanut butter will aggravate the condition..I just finished 1 tub..I have craving again waiting to go supermkt to buy.

My DH has serious Gout problem and he sometimes will have joints pain especially on his legs after eating too much seafood. And his doctor from Polyclinic reminds him - not to take any PEANUTS and BEANS and any BEANS product....beancurd, bean sprouts, etc.

Why not you go to a clinic to visit a doctor for your leg pain and see what are the advices given by the doctor?

Mrs Kiasu, you are supposed to avoid excessive walking when you have plantar fasciitis. And shouldn’t be bare footed at home. You can google.

Yes, a blood test can check the level of uric acid in our blood. Let the doctor know your leg pain issue and see what the doctor say.

Wah... you really know the history of the Internet! I started using email in 1986 or 87 in ang moh land, worked in the same lab in NCSA a year before Marc Andreessen created the world's first browser Mosaic and he moved on to create Netscape. Guess I was born a year too early otherwise I might have joined him and his team For all I know he might have filled the spot in NCSA that I vacated Too bad I had to complete my NS so my first sight of the Internet browser was when I started work in 1992... dunno what it was :scratchhead: so I worked on something else. Sigh.

Yeah, during those days, the Internet really crawls because we had to use modems to connect to the Internet. So we would connect to bulletin boards, and type ASL this and ASL that when someone comes online. So different from nowadays where everyone think of Netflix and movies when you say \"internet\".

@floppy ah... do you miss the news.* groups? I do.

You are connected to the internet much earlier than I do. I only got sight of the internet when I was in university, especially after getting to know a number of people who are studying and researching in this field. I am a bit of an odd ball within this group of people since this isn't exactly my field of study

I do miss (sort of) the old Usenet such as the news.*, rec.* and talk.* groups. There are other forums that I frequent on the dark, quiet corner of the internet that are designed like the old newsgroups (mainly text based) and occupied mainly by older inhabitants of the internet :rotflmao:

I was connecting to NUS network using 1200kbps (or was it 2400kpbs) but there wasn't any internet then.
Didn't get to experience email and internet until somewhere mid 1990s, I think.

By mid 1990s modems should be up to 56Kbps (the theoretical limit of analog lines) but I think I stopped modeming at 33.6kbps :). Don't remember buying a 56Kbps modem. US Robotics, Supra, etc... that names come flooding back.

1200bps is like 1.2Kbps. The LAN line started marketing at 128Kbps, which is like 128 times faster than 1.2kbps and now I'm on a \"slow\" 2Mbit line or 2,000,000 times faster than a 1200bps modem! Nobody talks about line speeds anymore because it is no longer a problem, but prior to 2000, it IS a big problem.
