Wheat Is Murder!!!
Wednesday 12 March 2003 - 2.47am
I just found out a fact that i believe completly undermines the
supposed moral supieriority most vegetarians feal, And is a good
argument for when they try to make you feal guilty for having a hamburger.
The Harvesting of Wheat, Soy, Corn and other Crops kills Millions of animals a year. Only instead of being humanely killed and every part of their bodys used, they are chopped into little pieces by a combine and left to rot, according to one study just planting one field of alfalfa can lead to a 50% reduction in the local vole population, Animals of the field are killed by several factors, including:
1. Tractors and farm implements run over them.
2. Plows and cultivators destroy underground burrows and kill animals.
3. Removal of the crops (harvest) removes ground cover allowing animals on the surface to be killed by predators.
4. Application of pesticides.

In fact if you want to do the least harm to animals then eating meat is the only answer, consider the following science that i drop upon you.

There are 120 million hectares of harvested cropland in the US (USDA, 2000). If all of that land was used to produce a plant-based diet, and if 10 animals of the field are killed per hectares per year, then 10 x 120 million = 1200 million or 1.2 billion would be killed to produce a vegan diet. If half of that land (60 million) was converted to forage production and if forage production systems decreased the number of animals of the field killed per year by 50% (5 per year per hectares), the number of animals killed would be:

1. 60 million hectares of traditional agriculture x 10 animals per hectares = 0.6 billion animals killed.
2. 60 million hectares of forage production x 5 animals of the field = 0.3 billion.

Therefore, in this hypothetical example, the change to include some forage-based animal agriculture would result in the loss of only 0.9 billion animals of the field instead of 1.2 billion to support a vegan diet. As a result, we are morally obligated to consume a diet of ruminant products, not a vegan diet, because it would result in the death of fewer animals of the field.

But what of the ruminant animals that would need to die to feed people? According to the USDA numbers quoted by Francione (2000), of the 8.4 billion animals killed each year for food in the US, 8 billion of those are poultry and only 41 million are ruminants (cows, calves, sheep, lambs). Even if the numbers of ruminants killed for food each year doubled to replace the 8 billion poultry, the total number of animals that would need to be killed under this alternative would still be fewer (0.9 billion + 82 million = 0.982 billion) than in the vegan alternative (1.2 billion).

there so you see, Save the earth, Eat A Cow!

Thank you,

Use GGO Dangit
Thursday 6 March 2003 - 3.48am
i wish more people would use Galaxy Games Online and not
just beacuase jevon wrote it, its a good program, and its only real competition is openrpg, but while ggo is only around 600kb, openrpg requires 14mb of files, and ggo has most of the features you need for an online rpg, but unless more peple use it jevon wont be properly motivated to continue work on it, and that would be ashame.
i am trying to get the games i play in to use it, you should too

I had a weird dream,
Tuesday 4 March 2003 - 10.58pm
I had a weird dream last night,
in the dream i was sitting on a porch, and in my yard there sat a small dog and it stared at me with small angry eyes, small dead eyes,
they bore into my soul like beams of pure hate, and he began to emit a horrible sound, a wail like a banshee, a peircing trill straight from the depths of hell it began low and increased in volume till i had to clutch my ears and i began to scream, i bolted awake and sat breathing heavily in bed, i had rolled over on the dog again,
i wish he would stay in his dog bed.
stupid dog

Internet Radio
Sunday 2 March 2003 - 2.39am
I love Internet Radio,
the best source for free internet radio is
http://www.shoutcast.com/ it uses winamp
as its player, which i think is one of the best players out there.
but i digress, anyway i think that its very cool that i can sit here in the middle of nowhere in a small texan town and listen to radio stations from england, japan, and everywhere else.
a few of my favourite stations are
Virgin Radio from the U.K its the only commercial station i listen to, 80)
Japan-a-radio Nonstop J-pop Very good beats, evan if i cant understand a word there saying, 80)
Radio Paradise Very eclectic, a good mix of intelligent rock.
so if you have a decent connection you should checkit out.
