Default RE: knuckle cracking and arthritis

Jeez--is this warning I see above the posting box for me, or is it a general warning for all whose presents shall enter? 1st time I've seen that. DB, you been cussin' agin?

Anyhoo-- I have asked the hand surgeons I have worked with over 22 years worth, must be mor'n a dozen, guess how many different answers I've gotten? Yep, mor'n a dozen. None of them will say it's bad for you, none of them will say it's good for you. How non-committal can you get? Sure does feel good to do it though; I, too am a kanukal krakker. It does seem to me, though, that the more I do it over time, the tighter they feel sometimes if I don't crack them. 'Course, I'm older now than I used to be. Sort of which came first, chicken or egg?
