...years of medical training and practice in Manhattan, I've seen a wide range of diets come and go. Virtually none of them work. Of course, they may work for a few weeks or months, but my experience follows the national statistics that 90% of dieters regain their weight within two years of weight loss. The ones who have been successful are those who have made a permanent commitment to altering their eating habits and continuing to be active physically. A major problem is that the dedication it takes to stay on a diet, especially for those significantly overweight...

Instead of being languidly wistful, as one presumes he intended, "Falling in Love Again" and "Where or When" is merely...
...engaged in a war with the humans of the ironworks. Miyazaki refuses to let the situation become too simple; by somewhat contrived means it becomes clear that the ironworkers are not evil, and the animal gods not entirely good. Though there are quite a few important characters none is flat, and Neil Gaiman's dialogue is simply brilliant. The plot, screenwriting and premise of Princess Mononoke is higher caliber than most films churned out of Hollywood...
