Even if there weren't, I cannot at all agree with Paul's sentiment. Someone raising awareness of a problem is *not* under any obligation to stay silent in the absence of a complete ready solution. Frequently, a solution can only realistically come when *many* people talk about the problem first; all the more so when the problem described is one of large scale. -- \ “Sane people have an appropriate perspective on the relative | `\ importance of foodstuffs and human beings.
