Let's assume that company in Okemos goes to the extreme, and says you have to be within 5lbs of ideal bodyweight, according to the most restrictive weight policies imaginible. How long do you suppose they stay in business, considering the reduced labor pool (there's only so many skinny people) and the poor public relations (Drudge headlines)?

The weight issue may come under the American Disabilities Act in some issues....some over-weight issues are genetic despite one's best efforts to maintain a proper weight.

It will be interesting to watch that one tested in court!
