OH god, don't start the veggeism one, I get enough of
that from my girlfriend! Endless arguments over animal
rights, food efficiency and diet! Though if veggies
tried to put in a lot of veggie articles, I'd be there
to counter their arguments all the way :-) Come to
think of it, I could just be the resource's
antagonist, disagreeing with every article I see :-)
Or maybe not.
