This is no joke. There is a woman here at Travelers (where I work) who drives a Segway to the gym, parks it, then gets onto the tread mill.

Very sad. It's an advanced case of Yupster Syndrome. Victums are torn between what's perceived as being trendy and 'kool' and what they think is going to make them live to be 100+. These are the people who cleaned out the red wine section of the local package stores when somebody published a study about the beneficial effects of red wine. They just don't read the "1 - 2 glasses a day for 50 years" part and try to make up for lost time by swilling Ripple by the gallon. They rack their bicycles on the Volvo and drive 20 miles so they can ride them. These are the people whose kids suffer from malnutrition because they're getting low-fat diet yuppie food instead of stuff kids need to eat so they can grow. There is no cure. Very sad. -- UNK
