How do they know that damage was done? There might be the
cumulative effect over a long time, but, taking my father
for an example, it didn't manifest until he was 80 years old.

My body just told me to eat a half pound of fudge.

Ah. Oatsotto or maybe oatlaf.

That's right, you're just a refractory person.

If the universe is truly infinite, and choices are truly
agnostic, this might be believable.
