That has always been my husband's arguement- that cows and horses are more polluting than his one little SUV...

They tried to get sll the farmers here to fit theit cows with bottom filters - I think it would be easier if everyone went back to owning a few cows each and riding one into work!

Oh, yeeees! Funny, serious, witty, thoughtful, irreverent and very, very contemporary.

Am I a sinner, too, since I am a meat-eater? :-)

Greetings from London.
