    Adrian - I have yet to find any position that is not first and foremost emotional. Even the ones that are very logical seem to have this profound emotional starting point.

    I asked some of my vegetarian friends - they said that they wouldn't have a problem with it. I suspect that this issue will die down when people start to realize where their tofurkey comes from.

    -Eric "George Orwell" Blair

    "If the policy of the government, upon vital questions affecting the whole people, is to be irrevocably fixed by decisions of the Supreme Court...the people will have ceased to be their own rulers, having to that extent practically resigned the government into the hands of that eminent tribunal."
    (Lincoln's First Inaugural Address, 1861).
