Most of the nutrients in mushrooms are behind a cell wall of chitin, which is a fibrous substance consisting of polysaccharides and forming the major constituent in the exoskeleton of arthropods and the cell walls of fungi.

because of this chitin, eating a mushroom raw is not very nutritious and you miss out on most of the health benefits.

Next up USA will bandwagon and put Frida on the 500 note like they did in Mexico in 2010.

"At every level, from the microcellular to the psychological, exercise not only wards off the ill effects of chronic stress; it can also reverse them. Studies show that if researchers exercise rats that have been chronically stressed, that activity makes the hippocampus grow back to its preshriveled state. The mechanisms by which exercise changes how we think and feel are so much more effective than donuts, medicines, and wine. When you say you feel less stressed out after you go for a swim, or even a fast walk, you are." -John J. Ratey, Spark: The Revolutionary New Science of Exercise and the Brain

And another

"we sometimes lose sight of the fact that the mind, brain, and body all influence one another. In addition to feeling good when you exercise, you feel good about yourself"

Miki Meek a radio producer who I meet on a 4 day trek through Guatemala has a This American Life about a phone booth in the middle of nowhere in Japan with no connections to power, people go there to talk to deceased loved ones.

IMHO I can't imagine a technology that is closer to production that the Arduino, it gets you 90% and more importantly instills the limits of the technology before it goes to a electronic prototype house.

Prototypes are easy. Production is hard. This is the current issue with the Tesla Model 3, a few is easy, a full production line with all it's perils that's a massively harder proposition.
