eating a
full and varied diet. Especially vegan.

What utter rubbish.


by definition it has to be less full and varied than the diet of someone who
can eat everything you can plus meat products etc

Not necessarily. The meat-eater might live on BigMacs and nothing
else, while the vegan scoffs an enormous variety of veg and fruit.

Health wise meat is completely unnecessary. Most meat eaters are
lardarses.

Can you please provide data for this statement? Can you also please tell me
why supplements need to be taken by vegans? I am an omnivore I eat meat
amongst other things, and at 8 1/2 stone I doubt I could be classed as a
'lard arse'.

I know of one or two vegetarians who seem as extreme in that direction
as your example of a Big Mac eater. Either way, what seems like an
insanely unvarying diet, though both might contain adequate nutrition.

And meat production converts vegetable matter we cannot digest into meat
that we can. The current meat production industry does use crops we
could directly, and so is wasteful of resources. That doesn't mean that
a zero-meat diet is the optimum.

No, Jim, it doesn't, as I've just illustrated. You can have very
limited omnivorous diets, and you can have very varied vegan diets.
The definition 'omnivore' doesn't give you a clue about the variety of
any given omnivore's diet; nor does the definition 'vegan' give any
indication of variety.
I take it you mean *potentially* more varied, but that's another
matter.

No I mean more varied. If you start talking about notional potential then
you can pretty well pretend anything you like

No, I don't see any problem with it at all. You eat animals, humans are
animals. Where's the difference? If you're willing to have animals
intentionally killed for your consumption why on earth would you have a
problem eating flesh that is a by-product of an animal that hasn't been
killed? It's not logical.

In Oz they have become aware of the unsolved problem of wind farms
producing output when it can't be used and not producing output when
it is needed, just as the Danes have after both have invested a vast

"The Tide regularly Ebbs and Flows, twice in every 24 hours". Can someone

I can predict with 101% accuracy that the same will be happening in 10
years, 50 years, 1000 years time. Where is the doubt?

I look forward with great relish, to the 'Keepers', the 'Net Nannies' and
the 'Owners' of this newsgroup proving me wrong on the tidal flow subject

Tidal flow has been used to generate electricity on the Rance estuary in
Northern France, I believe. 'Tide mills' were in use on tidal parts of
rivers back in the middle ages, and electrical generating stations would
work on a similar principal but on a much larger scale.

I don't know why no-one has yet built a tidal flow power station in the UK,
but I'd guess cost has something to do with it, plus concerns about the
effects of damming up major rivers on sewage disposal and the ecologies of
the areas which would be changed by the damming.

The UK has a national power grid and high population density so there
isn't any problem of UK windfarms producing surplus power that can't be
used; they just feed it into the grid.


Just feeding it into the grid doesn't necessarily mean it gets put to any
actual or practical use, though. Distance between point of input to the grid
and point of use is still a factor, because of losses associated with Joule
heating, so generating facilities located re,otely from centres of heavy
demand are relatively inefficient in meeting that demand. Further,
additional power input to the grid at times when supply already exceeds
demand is still wasted.

Granted, those aren't problems to the wind turbine operators as long as the
grid is obliged to accept energy input from them whether or not needed
locally at the time.
