Scientists that see the obvious truth, are trying to prepare and prevent
global warming. Even the Republican Governor is scared about the QUICK
change.

As far as your comments about Mad Cow Disease, and comparing it to other
long term brain disorders. It is not simply a long term brain disorder.
The only known way of getting it is by eating fresh that has prions in
it. Worse, it is contagious to people. The fact that in human beings it
is called another disease, it is the same disease. If the cattle
industry had fully complied with the changes there would be no new
cases. A recent set of cases were shown in Britain.

Now I admit, if you grow your own meat, and thus know the source, and
butcher the animal yourself, you eliminate the risk. It also protects
you from the rampant use of antibiotics and chemicals if you control the
food supply. Now, if you think it moral to eat cows, that's another
matter. I happen to be a vegan and do not consider it a vegan.

And guess what? This is a vegan group, for people who are vegans.
You abuse it.
