Well, if they didn't keep pigs in the most unsanitary (and not to mention cruel) environments for these meat "factories", then maybe these diseases wouldn't become so rampant. Then again, maybe when a good sized hurricane hits the Atlantic seaboard and dumps millions of tons of pig sh*t[^] into the water and people start to get sick, someone will finally take notice. Or read this article[^]. We need to be thinking about where our food is coming from and making better choices. Marc

Actually, as far as I'm concerned the real problem is the over population of earth. But how do you solve that?

Plenty of wild feral hogs available here in Texas.

Perhaps A Modest Proposal[^] would solve both problems?

Not sure what the bounty would be, but it's a thought...

Took me a little while to find it[^]. But it implies that the modest proposal isn't really fully satisfying. Now excuse me while I'm being a little sick.
