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.

I noticed you're coming to brickfest, unfortunately I have another commitment
that weekend but there are several excellent vegetarian restaurants around DC

Yeah, I've been to DC a few times and there are just a ton of great places to
eat.  Thanks for the list, I've printed it and will take it with.  But I figure
I'll be going to dine with other LUGnuts, and short of a steakhouse I can
probably find something most places.

Ah... I'm a resource use vegan...  animal rights are not my main concern.  I'm
pretty happy with where i am right now.  I would like to explore a more raw
foods diet, but I don't think i could do that full time.

Raw, meaning uncooked, or meaning unprocessed?

Do you worry about stuff like whether the sugar you buy has been filtered
through charred bones?

(...)
