Hi,

Anybody who has worked in a dairy barn has very different feelings about  
milk, than people in the city.  The average utter lies in manure at least  
once a day.  The teet is wiped clean for a few seconds, and milking begins.

I imagine city-folk would starve if they got back to the farm.  Not a show  
farm, an average farm.

Ha, ha, ha.

Later,
Tom
