I just typed in steroidology for fun on wikipedia, and they really do thier research. Check this out...

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steroidology

Steroidology is a website where weightlifters gather to exchange information on anabolic steroids. One of the largest and most respected such sites; it has over 30,000 active members. The main feature of the site is the forums, where members post on a variety of fitness-related topics.

Steroidology's tagline is "Uncover the truth about modern bodybuilding". The truth that the site seeks reveal is that safe and effective steroid use is widespread among the weightlifting community. Members discuss the benefits of anabolic steroids, safe ways to use them, and share pictures of real and fake steroid drugs.

Steroidology was founded in early 2003 by members Biggieswolls and TxLonghorn. Its founding is widely believed to have been a response to the corruption and drama which were plaguing other sites of the same genre. Since its origin, the site has taken on many new moderators to help keep order amongst the growing population.

The anabolic forum is where most of the site's information is disseminated. Members post threads about such topics as testosterone, blood tests, and muscle growth.

The Training Forum is dominated by powerlifting ideology and the belief that strength and size gains in the gym are directly proportional. Squats are recommended herein for all ailments including, but not limited to: disproportionately small arms, weakness on unrelated lifts such as bench press and unwanted pregnancy.

The conversation lounge (popularly referred to as the "convo lounge") is a place for general off-topic banter, where racism and homosexual pictures are prevalent. The "N-word" is now banned in the lounge (and is the only banned word), but some members now use alternative or abbreviated terms to represent this word.

There used to be an XXX forum, but this was subsequently deleted after consuming most of the site's bandwidth.
 
These guys do know everything, I feel like I didnt even need to wast 400 bucks on my Anatomy & Physiology book because I look up most of my information there.
 
er....you do realize that somebody on this site would have posted that article, right?

It gets removed every so often, I believe.
 
Yea I realized that someone in the know posted it, I was just suprised that someone took the time, and moreover that it was so damn thorough, down to the NGR convo thing.
 
does this mean ive been replaced .

If you thought that nice German chocolate cake was German, then look it up on Wikipedia.
The German Chocolate Cake is a layered chocolate-buttermilk cake filled and topped with a coconut-pecan frosting.

[edit]
History
This cake was not actually invented by Germans. The original recipe was sent by a homemaker in Dallas in 1957 to a newspaper in Texas. It used Baker's German's Sweet Chocolate, which was created in 1852 by an Englishman named Sam German for the Baker's Chocolate brand.

The cake had an immediate and enthusiastic response, and requests about where to find the German's chocolate bar were so numerous that General Foods (who owned Baker's Chocolate) decided to send pictures of the cake to newspapers all around the country. Everywhere the recipe had the same response and the sales for the chocolate exploded.

Now the cake is a regular item in bakeries across the country, and a mix is on the grocery shelves also.

The cake may not have been an invention of the Dallas housewife. Buttermilk-chocolate cakes have been popular in the South for over 70 years. As well, pecans to be used for the frosting are plentiful in the area. German's chocolate is similar to a milk chocolate and sweeter than regular baking chocolate.
