Instead of a sign that says "Do Not Disturb" I need one that says "Already Disturbed Proceed With Caution."

A lot of people are vegetarians because of unnecessary cruelty to animals, not emissions or environmental reasons.

Most vegans I know just do it as an expression of their moral superiority.

I think most people become vegetarians for health reasons.   Personally, I am trying to cut way down on red meat.   Which is difficult, because the other day I had a really great burger from M Shack.  Man that was a big old sloppy juicy medium rare burger that was soooo good.   With cheese.  Not sure what the sauce was, but it was really tasty.  M Shack.  Corner of Post and Margaret Streets in 5 Points.

Everyone I know who's tried to become a vegetarian/vegan for "health reasons" has failed miserably. Everyone I know who's done it for moral reasons has succeeded. Take that as you will.

Anything farmed "open ground" will be hard on the environment. Lettuce, tomatoes, potatoes, carrots etc.


The machinery is gigantic in that type of farming.
