        well, i see room for improvement, i think. is it good to raise chickens in
cage barely bigger then they are? diseases r rampant, and pain-sensitive
things are subjected to, well, lotsa pain.
        but i agree in that this isnt really much of a problem. theres much bigger
fish to fry then chicken farms that treat chickens like shit... and if we fry
those fish right, well, raising animals will probably be, by comparison, a
most inefficient method of making food.
