You know, when I was reading, I thought, "Matrix" - so yeah, that came
through.

Sometimes I think we are already half way there to the Matrix, with reality
fabricated and fed to us through the media and our own selfishness.

On the positive side, as we know, there are folks out there working on
marketing grass fed organic meet, and organic and BGH free milk - and
customers want it.

We also know that environmental regulations that used to be enforced
stimulate agricultural entrepreneurs to come up with ever more
biodegradable, earth friendly, and healthy products!

There is much good going on along with that Matrix stuff!
