Default WHY VEGANISM?

not a doctor, not a Hindoo, not Indian Jyotishithead Jay Stevens blabbered:

> Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed, citizens can
> change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has.
>
> - Margaret Mead, American cultural anthropologist (1901-1978)


Ha ha ha ha ha! I always love it when people try to appeal to the
authority of Margaret Mead. In the early 1970s, some long-haired dirty
Birkenstock-wearing counterculture fruitcake once asked her in an
interview what she thought of "macrobiotic" diets; clearly the smelly
hippy was anticipating a glowing endorsement. Imagine his chagrin when
she replied, "When you eat macrobiotic food, you aren't eating food -
you're eating an ideology. I prefer to eat food."

HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA! If she were alive, she would say something
similar to the jyotishithead, Jay Stevens; probably say something
similar to that crazed crack-smoking lunatic Larry Forti, too.
