Oh the Humanity.............................
What a bunch of nut jobs!
Swiss Referendum Sunday May Establish - WSJ.com
"Scientists must consider the dignity of plants before embarking on experiments."
"If Sunday's referendum passes, animals will have the right to be represented by lawyers in court. If they cannot afford a lawyer, one will be appointed at government expense."

This might not be such a bad idea. I've always felt that one of the most noble plants is/are Brussel Sprouts. If ever there was a plant whose dignity should be preserved, it's Brussel Sprouts! I say "Leave it alone!" Don't cook it. Don't serve it. Don't touch it. Gotta hand it to the Swiss...pure genius.

I'll eat about anything.....But I must admit, I'm no fan of the pungent little mini cabbages.......
Got a friend who used to run a restaurant though....I don't have the exact recipe, but she said it involved halving the brussel sprouts, laying them cut-end up on a baking pan....brushing them with butter and garlic, and roasting them. Said they come out delicious....AND milder in taste. Sounded pretty good.

From: North of Boston MA
I worked in a sign factory when I was in high school. We apparently got a good deal on trucks headed back to California that came to Boston loaded with produce.
One Saturday morning I had to clean out the back of a 48' trailer so we could load a whole bunch of signs. I was badly hungover and the bottom of the truck was covered with squished, rotted, stinking, nasty Brussel Sprouts. To this day, 28 years later, I can't even look at those little suckers without feeling like I am going to vomit.
I say ban them.

Any chance the spirits you induced the night before played a small part?
