I think this butching of animals is part of a conspiracy, literally. It is my opinion this foot/mouth disease is not fatal. It was a ploy by some power that be to slaughter other-wise healthy animals. The farmers will be feeling this in Britain for the next decade. Cripple the farmers, you cripple the economic/food supply of a nation. Now they want to start this crap up here in the states. Problem is, People have never seen a texas rancher when some "authority" comes along and says they are going to butcher his herd, with or without his consent. Have any of you researched what the long term effect of this "disease" is? Can it kill a nation? If they are so concerned about a disease among livestock of spreading, why do they allow aids and other spreadable disease among some in our populace to walk freely around without forced quarantine? Makes no sense to me. They aren't killing our livestock. The midwest and Texan farmers are going to be smarter than the Brits.

Thanks. suzy > -- ******************************************************* June Narber AKA June Narber Harrison [email protected] REFLECTIONS, April 2001 All Thing New Spring, the rebirth of earth from winter slumber, is also the perfect time for the rebirth of your own dreams from their winter hibernation. All things must be constantly reborn. If not, stagnation can lead to decay of all things, even dreams. Listen not to idle talk of what you should be doing, follow your own heart to find your life's path. Change is not scary, it is mandatory to keep moving toward YOUR life's destination. Reach and try new things. Don't be afraid. Life is about experiencing every good and wonderful thing. A person who has ceased improving themselves has ceased to live.
