If you're under the impression that the one redeeming quality of factory farms is that at least they provide cheap food for people, consider that more food goes into them than comes out. Most of it comes out as body heat, CO2, and poop.

They also shouldn’t care about which side phones them the most on a given issue. Public demonstrations are important for influencing other voters, but elected officials should not allow themselves to be influenced.

anyone see google.com's Earth Day message today? It just links to an ad for a company's thermostats. I guess I'm not surprised, but were they always this obvious?
you can win any argument by just saying "breathlessly" in reference to opponents. also effective is "sputtering" and "screeching".
I guess when scammers take over academic email accounts, they sign emails with the name from the email address to give the message an authentic touch. They missed the mark slightly with this one....
