    Re: Why is AIDS such a big deal? —Christopher Tracey
   (...) Chris, I haven't been following this thread for the past week and I'm not caught up yet. I'm a little confused by the above paragraph. Are you vegan or lacto-ovo-vegetarian? It sounds like the latter to me, but I wanted to be sure. FYI, I've (...) (24 years ago, 2-Jun-00, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

I've toyed with following a vegan diet, but it's not a step that I'm ready to take for (...) (24 years ago, 3-Jun-00, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

    (...) That's what I thought, 'cept the sentance "I haven't eaten (except for trace amounts by mistake) the flesh, or derivatives, of an animal in six years." confused me a bit- IMO dairy is an animal derivative. Just checking. I noticed you're (...) (24 years ago, 5-Jun-00, to lugnet.off-topic.debate, lugnet.off-topic.fun)
   
        Re: vegetarians (was Re: Why is AIDS such a big deal?) —Christopher L. Weeks
   (...) Oh, I wonder how I should have written that. I meant to be saying flesh-derivatives (like gelatin), not animal-derivatives. I certainly agree that dairy is an animal derivative. (...) Yeah, I've been to DC a few times and there are just a ton (...) (24 years ago, 5-Jun-00, to lugnet.off-topic.debate, lugnet.off-topic.fun)

         Re: vegetarians (was Re: Why is AIDS such a big deal?) —Larry Pieniazek
     (...) Not me. If you don't believe me, come to Michigan where we raise both beef cows and dairy cows and you will soon discover that milk from a beef cow tastes marginal at best and meat from a dairy cow is absolutely awful, tough and stringy and (...)

     (...) cows (...) I'm a northern Illinois farm boy (okey, flame the hell out of me <g>) and all our beef cattle were steers. I couldn't imagine anyone eating old cow carcasses. likewise, you don't get much dairy product from steers. Tom (24 years ago, 6-Jun-00, to lugnet.off-topic.debate, lugnet.off-topic.fun)
   
        Re: vegetarians (was Re: Why is AIDS such a big deal?) —Christopher Tracey
   (...) Hmmm. I just call everything I can't eat 'cow' (j/k). Flesh-derivative works for me. (...) WAMALUG had a dinner meeting at Harmony Cafe in Georgetown. Even the picky eaters were happy with the meal. It's one of my favorite places to eat here. (...) (24 years ago, 5-Jun-00, to lugnet.off-topic.fun)
   
        Re: vegetarians (was Re: Why is AIDS such a big deal?) —Christopher L. Weeks
   (...) Last time I was in DC (Thanksgiving for two weeks in '97) my friend and I were in an area near a college (we went on the metro) where there were little delis, tatoo and piercing places, used music shops, and a big (and interesting) gay and (...)
