From: "Keith Thomas" <[log in to unmask]> You Americans appear to be caught up in a headlong rush with little dissent of corporate stuffing around with nature - all for dollar benefits, not for benefits to health of humans or the other animals involved. Now this is a gross generalization, but so typical of the slam against us these days. Corporate types may be "caught up in the rush" as you put it, but certainly not most Americans.
