Thanks for the link! This horsemeat topic has taken on a bit of a life of its own. I may have to hire it a secretary (not a Secretariate, mind you!).
It certainly has, Dana--77 comments and counting! Great to see a spirited (and generally reasonable) debate ensuing on your site.
Congrats on bringing this story out into the light.

Hooray, its Friday! I just love this feature so much, Dan. And thanks for including me. I'm honored!
Looking forward to checking out the rest of the links - particularly the bottled water. I'm trying very hard to break myself of the habit ... and its not easy.
Your link to Knife's Edge was blocked by my corporate internet overseers because the website pertains to WEAPONS.
Hi Diva!
Happy to link to you, I thought that was a great post.
Jose,
Why am I not surprised by that? Maybe it's high time you quit your job... :) Thanks as always for reading.

I loved the guest post on CHG. Maybe I should have a baby so Steve will learn to cook. Heh.
I'm very guilty re. the bottled water. I think about it. I need to get a Brita filter, for both ethical and financial reasons. Steve and I buy one Aquafina 1L bottle each per week and refill it over and over at home and work. And at home, that means, on average, five 2.5-gallon jugs per week. $50 per month. I know, I know. You can slap me now. But southern CA water tastes so freaking horrible, it just became a habit.
Love the "not yet" thing too. I'm always aware when I say the words "someday" or other such phrases. It never fails to stop me in my tracks. Someday should be NOW, even if it's hard.
Thanks for the feedback Melissa, and as always thanks for reading.
DK
