[Augustine23639]

Better diet would seem to be the obvious answer, though it may also be growth hormones (BGH, etc.) in the food that are finding their way throughout the food chain. When I graduated from high school in 1978, being 6’0″ was regarded as tall; now, heights of 6’4″ and above are not uncommon. I see a lot of young people who are ‘too tall for their body frame,’ much as you would have plants made too tall and spindly by over-fertilizing. It’s really pitiful because, while you can diet to lose weight, you can’t lose height (at least not by any appreciable degree).
