Re: how do you explain???????????????????????
I agree with those saying these are cholesterol/bile stones, not congealed olive oil. The evidence to me is undeniable. My personal examinations of my own stones, other people's accounts here and elsewhere, university and scientific documents describing the stones, photos... a crude undersanding of
Science and some basic life experience is really all that's needed.
Whenever I hear naysayers, they usually start off proclaiming their scholarly studies, their medical training, or that they just plain refuse to even do a flush. The ego is very powerful for some people to overcome in order to remain objective or empathetic. Experience trumps theory though. Doing trumps opining any day.
I don't include Tim in the above description, but I do think the stones are sometimes misidentified, and in this case I think the stones were probably mixed with pulp as they were flushed through his body. Or the "pulp" is really parasites.
