Yes, I can hear the snickers, I watch West Wing and enjoy it, also, 'know thine enemies'...
However...a rerun of an episode where a 'possible' case of Mad Cow disease had shown up in a midwestern state.
The debate in the White House, was whether to release the information immediately or wait for laboratory confirmation, some 72 hours in the future.
It was a good program..and the fear that such an outbreak of the disease in America...would devastate the beef industry, the fast food industry, Steak houses, farmers who grow grain for feed; it seemed a possible logical sequence of events.
At the market today I noticed that 'beef' prices in general have gone up about a dollar a pound over the past few months. Then the startling association came to mind.
Did we not just have an outbreak of Mad Cow disease confimed in Washington State? Or does my memory fail?
I have not seen a news story in weeks..perhaps even months on Mad Cow disease.
Anyone?
