Looked up "Balut" (me vegetarian and was clueless about this one) and I agree with you - each person has to draw his or her own line >Open your mind to other political points of view.

If you are a liberal, listen to Rush Limbaugh or Bill >O'Reilly, read the Washington Times or InstaPundit, and watch Fox News. This one is really tough as well. It is hard to watch/listen to Bill O'Reilly even if you split your mind open - it is the worst kind of spin in the so called "no spin zone". But it is fascinating to watch how single minded and well thought out propaganda works. And I have never even tried Rush Limbaugh! Vardhini --- "A. M.
