Whooo hooo! That last digest was great.

[Guest guest]

Sorry I haven't been around much of late. I caught a nasty

head cold and felt like crap all this week. I was pretty

much just logging in once a day to read digests and do

some of the more business end of list management and

not feeling up to bothering to answer emails at all. I just

wanted to welcome all the recent new members to the list

and say that the last digest I read was wonderful affirmation

that vegetarian people are delightful and intelligent people.

I recently joined this chat-list and was getting bombarded by

idiocy and gross misrepresentations of what vegans/vegetarians

are like and some lad claiming that it is akin to a starvation

diet as we cannot get all of our amino acids from the plants we

eat and simply should consume the flesh of dead animals. Ach!

So frustrating at times to come face to face with such ignorant

drivel, yet so nice to have this place as a haven from it.
