>Anyone who has looked into causes of stress cannot avoid the fact that a lack of PHYSICAL activity, a lack of PHYSICAL presence, and a lack of PHYSICAL stimulation is a major, if not the major factor.

Could you provide peer-reviewed research supporting this statement? Stress is a well-studied process and if what you say is true you should have no problem finding sources.

Physical stimulation probably happens more often in front of the computer these days too...

Also, could you provide a scientific definition for "physical presence"?

I'm not the one making claims. It's not my responsibility to validate anything. Even if I tried to, it's possible I'd miss the original sources that another person used to make an inference, and I'll lose the opportunity to learn. Worse, I could find bad sources, and learn the wrong thing.

But thanks for taking the time to obfuscate a lmgtfy link. It's clear you put time, effort, and love into this comment. Thanks, Quinn. Happy hacking!
