Basically, it's a vile thing that only people who are drink off their asses eat.

huh...it sounds pretty good to me!

I wish we had curbside composting pick up. Also, good public transportation. And less murder. etc.

I have to say, I can't say I've ever encountered one of these "forcing the world to accomodate their choices" vegans.

I have. Back when a friend of mine was first dating his now-wife, she was a militant vegan that pressured him to talk his roomates into switching their cats to vegetable-only cat chow.

Though I would say that the vast majority of vegetarians and vegans I know are nice people who are pretty graceful about living in a world where meat and its by-products are used in almost every aspect of commercial food preparation.

Good public transportation between Baltimore and Washington would be fabulous. Last time I went up to Baltimore (trapeze school, Inner Harbor), we ended up taking a MARC train from Union Station to BWI, then a shuttle across BWI, and then light rail from BWI to Camden Yards, and then walking a bit to the trapeze school. Took a good two hours. (There are other places in Baltimore where we could get more directly, but that seemed to be the quickest way to Inner Harbor.)

Hil, could you take an Amtrak train? would that go someplace a little more convenient?

Happy Anniversary, Susan & Dylan!

paperdol, I have some friends on a yahoo group and we have a monthly book discussion. Since I got to choose the book, I picked Vampire People and the four people who are discussing it, LOVED IT MUCHLY.

vegetable-only cat chow

According to most stuff I've read (which hasn't been much, since I don't have any pets), dogs can get all their nutrition from a vegetarian diet, but cats can't.

Not really. Amtrak would go to either BWI (leading to the same problem with needing to take a shuttle to the other side of the airport to get the light rail) or Penn Station, which is too far North and then we'd have to take a light rail or bus back south, taking more time.
