Watch it there, Graham. You're crossing the line between politics and
pretty pictures -- not something this group tolerates well!
I happen to agree with you on this one, though. With corn and soybeans
going into fuel tanks of SUVs, there isn't enough food left to run
through an animal, at 10% efficiency. (It takes 10 calories of plant
matter to make 1 calorie of meat, and grain stocks are near ten-year
lows.)
There, I managed to insult farmers, SUV owners, and meat eaters, in
just one paragraph!
