Folks, if you've recently upgraded or renewed your annual club membership but it's still not active, please reach out to the BOD or a moderator. The PayPal system has a slight bug which it doesn't allow it to activate the account on it's own.
Hmmm... not including reproductive phases, I don't think any coral can live forever. I believe the criteria in the article revolves around a single animal metabolically regressing to an earlier life stage and starting its life all over again, and eventually again, and again, yada, yada...

Good luck with the new enterprise! Perhaps you could post (here) a list of the issues that acupuncture currently has the ability to treat. I did an interesting stint once for allergies many years back ~ it was kind of neat to hear the needles crunch into my skull. (Sorry, that sounds...
