Uhmmm - my comment was tongue in cheek. I really did not mean "convince
me". I was attempting to point out that making assumptions about diet based
on isolated physical characteristics - in this case teeth - are somewhat
specious. It's a trap that many (most?) vegetarians fall into.
But thanks for taking the time to explain it anyway :)
