175. Who Cares About Frankenburgers?
For the last few days, I've been sounding the alarm about the
FDA's legalization of cloned cows, pigs and goats. My paper,
The Washington Post, carried this story on Wednesday, January
16, placing the article on page three, underneath the
"way more important story" that the local Red Cross
office would cut some staff.

Who cares about having cloned meat enter the food supply…
unlabeled? Who is protesting? 

Not my newspaper, where all I've seen since was one short
letter to the editor. England, now there people have been
protesting about our decision. Americans, gee, why would we
bother?

In the European Union, you won't find some of our beloved and
questionable preservatives, like BHA and BHT. You won't be
able to buy milk from cows who have been crazed by doping them
to produce unnatural quantities of milk. Europeans get it.
Evidently good quality and common sense matter more than
greed.

Maybe the cause is their collective memory, dating back to the
Roman empire. One reason it fell, historians say, was the
style of plumbing. Lead in the pipes, who cares?

NO AURA IN CLONED ANIMALS, ALSO NO BIG DEAL?

If you read auras, read the auras of Dolly, the cloned sheep
and Scuppy, the cloned dog. (Both are easy to find on Google
and easier to find at my blog, www.rose-rosetree.com/blog.

I believe the technical term for what you'll get is
"Yeeeccccchhhhhh." You certainly won't find an aura.
That's the point. Cloned animals are machines. Is eating
machines good for a person energetically? Unless we protest,
we'll find out soon enough.

Uniformity will be the least of our problems.
