Dear Jim: I certainly agree with your statement. Let's ask these
people like Geoff, just who and what they are, what gives them the
right to tear apart whole industries to satisfy their own predilections
to destroy the livelihoods of those who provide them the very
necessities of life?

waste of time, as pete is either a troll, who just says it to wind you up,
or a crank in which case he doesn't care anyway

more sense to look at the figures, more and more people in the world are
consuming more meat every year
but with the way that grain is going in bioethanol, and the way that oil
prices are going up, a lot of people in the apparently prosperous west are
suddenly going to discover that the vegetarian protein sources and more
interesting vegetables they are used to are going to become awfully
expensive.
I wonder how many will be keen on being vegetarian when their only
vegetables are those that grow seasonally in England

the petes of this world are going to discover that they can ignore reality
for as long as they like, but reality will not ignore them

The coarse fisherman could well eat better than they do in the next few
years ;-)
