There is an imposter, sdccsu3!kenn who posted an article under my
name.  He is not me.

I have been trying to find information about fat cells, but it is
difficult.  To say that starting at age 10 the number of fat cells
remain fixed does not seem logical.  Suppose an adult gains a
massive amount of weight; the fat cells cannot all just grow to
store the fat -- there is a maximum fat cell size.  When I get
something official I'll post it.

By the way there is an accepted surgical method for removing fat; it
is not used because 99.9% of the time the patients regain the
weight.
