On the vaccination issue, I think that there are other issues that could also be causing the increase in athsma, etc. When I was little, I ate dirt, played with the dogs and cats and didn't wash my hands, ate wild berries without washing them, ate ants (I don't remember this but my parents say I

I assume your talking about the actual fish meat, not some processed catfood called tuna which may or may actually include real fish. I'm not sure where a tuna would get ash, living out in the ocean. Now, tuna does have alot of mercury, due to being high up on the food chain -- look at the FDA

Uuugh. Gotta love rendering plants There's one about 50 miles NE of where I live. Usually the wind blows the other way, but when it turns around, it stinks... When we raised rabbits, we would leave the extra parts up on the hillside after butchering them, and they'd be gone by the next
