Foot & Mouth

[Sam Kirwan]

Don't quote me - I don't want to kick off agricultural anarchy but haven't
Argentina been living with it for years??  Maybe that explains Corned Beef!
I'm even less sure about this bit but I think it's all such a panic because
we'll lose our 'Disease Free Status'.  LOL Disease Free - Have they seen our
Government!!!!

Of course, I have yet to hear any good explanation of why everyone is
in such a tizzy over a disease that is -- from what I understand, not
that there's been much clarification -- not particularly fatal to the
animals, difficult for humans to contract, and extremely mild even if
humans do manage to catch it. But hey, that's the gov't for ya ...

Cheers,
Carl
