Massive cardiac arrests - Cardiac arrest just means the heart stopped... How massive can it be? Can one person's heart stop more massively than another's?
People dying from cardiac arrest - This one comes up in coroner's reports. Again all cardiac arrest means is that the heart stopped. "Cardiac arrest" is a coroner's code for "I have no freaking clue..." The same is true of shock. We all die of shock and cardiac arrest.
Many "electrical" fires - electrical fires are to a fire inspector what a cardiac arrest is to a coroner. Electrical fires are actually pretty rare. But when you inspect a house where all that's left is a foundation and a pile of ash, the easiest thing to blame it on is an electrical fire.
It is just a way of saying that the heart attack was so severe that the heart couldn't be restarted. In that way, I suppose, one person's heart can stop more massively than another's.Quote:

I am pretty sure that 'fruits' was originally non-existent. It's supposed to be 'fruit and vegetables' not 'fruits and vegetables'
"I have ten vegetables and ten pieces of fruit." is how it is supposed to go.
Massive heart attack would make sense in that case. Massive cardiac arrest still doesn't. In the case of an MI the location and amount of collateral blood flow could make it more or less severe.Quote:

Anaerobic exercise.
While it is possible in humans for energy to be produced for short periods of time via anaerobic metabolic pathways, the metabolic pathways that produce energy via oxygen are also functioning at the same time.
The only organisms that can produce energy exclusively under purely anaerobic conditions are strict, or obligate, anaerobic bacteria.
I remember when my sister was much younger, my dad convinced her that "wax" was a swearword and he used to get really into pretending as well..! She'd say it and he'd be like "Dont use that language in front of your mother young lady!" Hehe!
She only found out when she was 12 and she asked a friends mother on the ride home from school if it was true and the whole car looked at her like she was mad..!
Dad also managed to convince me that the wind was a result of the trees sneezing when I was 5. And glacier mints actually came from glaciers in the Arctic.
I'm going to have to stop him talking to my kids (as and when I have them!) or Lord knows what they'll end up believing..!
Stubear,
Why would you want to deprive your children lessons on gullibility? Sounds like your dad could sell ice to an eskimo. :)
