Of course it's sickening. Some disgusting poverty level care facilities are sickening. Some animal shelters are sickening. There is nothing in what I said that didn't say it wasnt gross and sickening. What I said was that look to the messenger (Vegan), and tell me how it can be done humanely and still feed the millions of people which it feeds. If people want to become vegans and do w/out eggs, leather belts, and medicines (yep, animal products there), take their hype and propaganda. If one wants to be practical, come up with a way to do this humanely and accomplish the same goals. Other than that, being sickened is just feel good conversation. stormy On Sep 4, 2009, at 3:11 PM, Pinehillgsds@xxxxxxx wrote: > How 'bout I say a lot of us "get it" Joan?
