Um...okay...

Apparently Western cultures adopted the seated position only 150 years
ago?  I dunno, I've seen examples of "seats" waaaaay older than 150
yrs.  My almost-degree was in Architectural Conservation and I can say,
beyond all shadow of a doubt, that sitting to crap has been going on for
a *very* long time.  Several hundred years at least, certainly as long
as 'modern' history tells us, and definitly longer than 150 years...
