Ah, Fred, you just haven't "lived" have you? :-) - (just like 
Christopher it seems).

The shrimps etc come from those mentioned areas and I have eaten those 
products only a few days ago - I'm still alive and healthy and am not 
going bananas. Also, the people who live there aren't keeling over from 
eating the very same products, are they?

(And what are you going to eat when the marine creatures in the Gulf of 
Mexico are contaminated and die from the oil spill? But I digress.)

Have you ever thought about all the health problems which are afflicting 
the "latest generations"? You have read reports that the "latest 
generations" are coddle-moddled into being bacteria resistant with all 
the crap appearing on TV advertisement where mothers are convinced to 
have to kill every damn germ in the house by using anti-bacteria this or 
anti-bacteria that? You can read reports about this in any appropriate 
health forum.

As you know, I was born in China (Shanghai). I survived hook-worms a 
metre long, but almost did not survive dysentery (I was given the Last 
Rights but survived to live another day :-( ).

My grand parents had a dairy farm outside Peking. If you ever had to 
travel to a farm there you would see a few things which would open your 
Western eyes.

My wife and I travelled to China from Hong Kong (on the same railway and 
same train stations which took my family out of China) some years ago.

Travelling on the train to the border I saw a typical farm house next to 
the railway which I saw when I was growing up: a small hut with a *very* 
large ceramic urn sitting on the side and next of the abode.

You know what these urns contain?

The family's daily excreta. They are deposited there, added to whatever 
there is already, and allowed to "age". At whatever is the determined 
time, the contents are scooped up into container(s) and spread over the 
vegetables being grown by the farm.

And as an addendum: do you know what happens to your excreta after it is 
processed by the sewerage works? I don't know what you may call it in 
America, but we here have a product which is used to fertilise and be 
spread on household lawns, and farmers use it to spread it on their farms.

And you also would have read about the damage to, say, American Bald 
Eagle by all the oestrogen excreted by women who use the pill?
