Maybe University students can live a hypocrisy-free life (I know that I came close), the messy world of families, in-laws taxes, jobs, petty jealousies, etc pretty much ensures that the rest of us are hypocrites on a daily basis: "No, honey, you don't look fat in that dress." "Son, that's the best picture of a house I've ever seen." "Baby, that's the best picture of a family I've ever seen." "Sure, I'd love to come visit you Monday night, instead of watching Stargate." etc, etc. > But as for this issue, this can all be solved by replacing the babe in > the images with a sheep, in the first pic it has all it's wool, the next > it's partially sheared and finally fully sheared.

But vegetarians (there *must* be some vegan D-Ds) would strenuously oppose to images of such "horrible" treatment of animals. -- ----------------------------------------------------------------- Ron Johnson, Jr. Jefferson, LA USA PGP Key ID 8834C06B I prefer encrypted mail.
