  • BOTL UPCOMING MAINTENANCE

    Hi Everyone, as mentioned in my introduction post, BOTL needs quite a bit of updating, patching and whatever else I might come across. Over the next few weekends BOTL may be unreachable on occasion as I do migrations or updates, etc. Just be patient - we'll be back! I'll generally try to keep these maintenances until later in the evenings.

What I learned a long time ago from that liberal pre-med commune I called college, was that hiccups are caused by excess oxygen in the bloodstream. The reason many cures work (breathing into a bag, long drink of water, etc...) is that they force either the holding of the breath, slowed breathing, or in some manner increase the levels of CO2 in the blood. My 2¢.
