Touche, Barnard. Twain was a vegetarian ( along with his pals Tesla and Edison ). Thump P.S. Make sure to write in 20 years, if your brain is not a perforated sponge by then, which could affect your occassionally charming wit! This is NO joke. The current USDA-allowable practice permits possibly infected flesh from "downer" animals to be ground up and mixed with feed for billions of other animals, possibly infecting many of them, and the humans who eat them. Just because a cow is asymptomatic at slaughter does NOT mean it is uninfected with transmissable disease, due to the its lengthy incubation period. And most "downers" are NOT inspected before being ground up and added to the animal or human food supply, according to industry witnesses, adding to the risk. As a woman died a horrible death merely from dusting her roses with bone meal, I consider your "humor" on this subject genuinely evil. Aren't you supposedly a Christian? Moral: We reap what we sow. Rather literally, in this case. __________________________________ Yahoo! FareChase: Search multiple travel sites in one click. http://farechase.yahoo.com
