Guest guest Posted June 9, 2005 Report Share Posted June 9, 2005 Hi Bob: I know this is off-topic, but are you sure your own language is not so fluid as it should be? No creo. I see a lot of value in English as an international language, but there are shades of meaning in my language that can't be translated into English. And call me a chauvinist, if you want, but there is not a more beautiful language in the world than mine. The trouble with English is that it is under the risk of becoming a mosaic. It is getting more and more difficult to preserve its original face. Well, to a certain extent, this affects all major languages on earth, but English most of all. I think it is all right to include raw foods in your diet, but to eat all raw and in such a fashion as leading to aversion, as instinctos seem to do, is an aberration in my point of view. It can make your entire life revolve only around food. How healthy can that be? As I see it, any solution to feed people must include cultivation of crops, however detrimental agriculture is at present viewed by an increasing number of people. We must find ways to reduce the impact of intensive growing and re-introduce sustainable hunting and gathering. Both trends should co-exist. It is unfortunate that many people living in big cities are not at all concerned about these issues. They just want to be fed, even if it just crap. It is a long way until things start to change. How long can we still afford to wait? José > well i have been around the English (as the Amish say) for sometime now, y a lo mejor mi lengua materna no es tan fluido como debiera ser... pero en este mundo, negocios han hecho del Ingles la idioma internacional... y es mejor dejarse llevar con la corriente que tratar de convencer a todos que aprendan Esperanto... o' Ruso, tovarich, o' Mandarin... aunque tal vez Mandarin seria util para saber QUE carrajo estan diciendo los cocineros en los restaurantes Chinos....
