people in all states (except for one) got fatter...guess
which one.

Answer here (don't look unless you want to cheat): http://www.cnn.com/2005/HEALTH/diet.fitness/08/23/obesity.state.rankings.ap/index.html


Hint: I was thin when I lived there (my first 20-some years). Now, 20-some years later, I am not thin. And my username is an obscure allusion to one of the state's geographic features

2. I'd rather not drink radioisotopes out of the Columbia River.
Even if I get to be thinner if I do.
