Friends - Mark Purdy, the man who has been gathering information that proves that mad cow and related diseases are not real diseases but are forms of physical and systemic degeneration that are triggered by exposure to organophosphates or manganese or other susbtance. The upshot of this, at a minimum, is that the danger of using bone and blood meals in gardening are not really present. More to the point, if Mark is right, and my sense is that he is, we have yet another example of government and corporations working in tandem at the expnese of public welfare.
The pargraph below will give you a good taste of Mark's focus and drive. I expect some opening statements by Mark so that everyone can get on the same page and then we'll commence 'discussion.' -Allan >I am really happy to partake in this - certainly any questions and answers, >etc, - but I really have to watch how much time I spend when I do these kind >of pieces, as my work is currently unfunded and I have alot of children to >support, etc. > >Yes, I agree with you that the majority of people - unenlightened and >enlightened alike - just like to cuckoo out the official Establishment >reductionist mindset on BSE aetiology. But considering the sheer number of >radical flaws in the Establishment hypothesis - notably that BSE failed to >appear in the many countries ( India, S Africa, Middle East, S America, etc ) >which imported thousands of tons of British meat and bone meal (blamed for >BSE) during the 70s / 80s / 90s - I am totally amazed that the public >continues to display such an ovine-like allegiance to this shoddy piece of >unscientific propaganda. Even my six year old daughter can see the stupidity in this !! --Mark Purdy
