Not true Thane, people in third world countries seldom have back
problems because they are fit. We slobs in the developed countries are
too sedentary and therefor have weak muscles which destabilize skeletal
joints and that's where back aches etc. come from. Get some exercise you
girlie man! :-)

But, I still have to ask -- where is the proof that sitting upright
is good? People talk about
"good posture" as though it's completely understandable that it's
good. Why is that so?
I read somewhere (no idea where or who wrote it) that the human back
isn't designed for standing upright but for moving like an ape, and
that's were a lot of our back problems come from.
