"Nick Maclaren" wrote in message ... 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'. |

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. -- Paul (Watch this space) |

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. Good job Mrs Bobbitt didn't feel peckish after harvesting hubby's wiener, then. |

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 amount in wind farms. UK next? -- Martin "The Tide regularly Ebbs and Flows, twice in every 24 hours". Can someone please explain to me why tidal power has not been harnessed? I can predict with 101% accuracy that the same will be happening in 10 years, 50 years, 1000 years time. Where is the doubt? Mike |

Mike 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 :-))) Come on Sacha, your the 'cruising queen' having spent some time on the tide, you are a 'Well' experienced sailor now. Your comments? :-)) |

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 message from contains these words: 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 amount in wind farms. UK next? 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. |
