I thank everyone for correcting my miss conceptions. I have saved all
links for further reading. Lots to read. This is an important topic to
me and I suspect to others. I do live next to a cattle farm that raises
black angus. Their stakes are good.

I am a software engineer who now finds life in the country is nicer.
Life is not simple anymore. The rules to healthy lifestyle seems to be
getting more complex each and every year and as I get older learning new
rules are getting harder each and every day.

When you get a chance read "Omnivore's Dilemma" (an oft referred to book
in this newsgroup). Most people find it a real page turner. If you can
find grass fed beef it will be healthier for you. It will be more
expensive up front, but there are expected health benefit$ in the long
term.

It's not that the rules have changed, it's that it's hard to get early
1940s food out of a 21st Century store. Everything used to be organic.
Then the "green revolution" (use of chemical fertilizers and synthetic
pesticides, and now GMOs) taught farmers how to maximize their crops.

Usually as you get older, the **** and vinegar starts percolating to the
surface. Older people usually have less patience, because we don't have
that much time left to waste. Come on Dan, get crotchety.
