VPL, this post is for you.
I know you like to read the newspaper and you often quote articles that support your point of view.
Friday's Daily Sun had an article by Dr. Barton Goldsmith entitled:
Depression, Loneliness are Bad for Your Health
I quote:
"Apparently loneliness and depression are the new killers.
In fact, recent studies show that either one is more dangerous to your life than obesity or using tobacco products."
