I read an article in a local rag about a conspiracy theory on what causes mad cow, having to do with organophosphate pesticides and manganese poisoning. The idea is that the chemical industry, who could be found liable if the real cause were discovered, is doing everything it can to squash the truth about this. I found it convincing, but haven't ever seen anything else like it since.
Anyone else heard about this? There was a British farmer who refused to give his cows this pesticide which had been mandated by the UK, and his cows didn't get sick when all others did.
