It's always interesting to hear others' perspectives on animal rights issues and you bring up some great points. Ultimately the decision of where to draw the line in terms of sentience and what to eat is really up to the individual. We gotta eat something! :) It's a difficult line to draw and it has always baffled me how some animals are considered ok to eat in our culture and some are not. Like the other issues you pointed out, it's a slippery slope. I just try my best to educate people about where their food comes from so that they can make informed decisions, and this is also a large part of PETA's mission. </DIV><DIV style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; "><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></DIV><DIV style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; ">Thanks for the Pink Floyd lyrics, too.
