No I am alluding to the fact that you think the stupid deserve what they get.
Stupidity is not acquired or learned it's 'forced on you'. i.e. it's out of your control and so are the subsequent resultws of that stupidity.
Therefore any other situation where one person has no control and yet has a detrimental consequence from that experience is analogous.
I was being inflammatory because 'people deserve what they get' is not an ideal I respect or admire and I was experiencing a feeling of anger towards you.
No, I live in UK but for ten years I've not eaten meat or dairy products. Consequently I know more about what's in my food than most people.
Seaweed is used to create creamy textures and, as I said, bind other food particulates together. I also eat it in it's raw form and use it as an ingredient in my own cooking.
Tradition is a difficult thign to break. Many people I encounter think that not drinking milk is ridiculous and yet they don't even know what's in it when you ask them. Much of it's so called goodness is added afterwards. It's got vitamin d made from fish oil for instance.
The land in the article is already salt based. the water table is saltwater not fresh so the salt in the seawater has no effect.

I'm no biologist but isn't the salt content of the body regulated by osmosis? If so then wouldn't excess salt be excreted? .oO0Oo.
I'm not sure but now you mention it, it does sound expensive.
As for cattle feed. We've seen the consequences of that here in Europe with Bovine Spongiform Encephalitis which was brought to cattle via cheap feeds. Would you believe that it's impossible to find out what is in pelletted cattle feeds in Europe. Manufacturers have no obligation to specify ingredients on packaging.
One investigation discovered that the pellets were made from dried chicken droppings. Mmm shit fed beef, sounds lovely.
I already eat quite a bit of seaweed (both raw and procesed into higher level foods) and have often wondered why it isn't used more in foods. You can use the gummy nature of it's structure to bind other foodstuffs and so alleviate the need for eggs and dairy. Dairy and poultry farming is energy intensive as well as cruel and consumes freshwater. Growing cereals to feed them to cows is stupid in effeciency terms.
It's great to think that the environmental effect is positive too. I wonder what the downside is, there always is one somewhere.

Given that I'd say that a small group that attempts to 'buy' the government will eventually be over-ruled by the will of the people
The process is slow, but I genuinely think that it works.
Slow, it's almost geological!
The first (and last and only) revolution was in 1649 and the new regime was just as despotic as it's predecessor, as have been all revolutions not very soon after. It is a necessary function of government to opress.
You talk of liberation and when the people rule,
But aint it people who rule right now,
What difference would it be?

INAL and I'm trying to be country neutral but that's hard.
well there you have stumbled on a definitive example of hwo a legislature works.
You see laws that are tightly defined have a shorter shelf life than those expressed vaguely.
In legislative context it is a good thing. That's what judges are for and why they are called judges. You see the prosection, with the aid of the police, detains a suspect. They then try to decide what law under which they will prosecute him. It is then their job to persuade the judge & jury that the defendant has broken the law as it is written. The jury (if present else the judge) mut decide this and thus interprets the law.
Why is this good? Because the judgement is made in the current context of life. Thus one can be prosecuted for obscenity but that which is considered obscene changes over time.
The parameters for how the laws are interpreted are set with precedents. In this way the first time someone is prosecuted for a certain action the legal counsel will argue over how the law should be interpreted. Thee are dubed 'test cases'. Once a few cases have been fought counsel can use the results of those cases as examples of how things should be done.
It's really very simple. I'm surprised you'd not noticed before.
Mind you in comment http://slashdot.org/comments.pl?sid=01/03/06/14482 36&cid=22 you also seem at odds with the legal system so READ SOME BOOKS .oO0Oo.

Ahhggg. This brings back horrible memories of huge C/Perl that would be flattened by one *semi-colon* out of wack. It's a pain. A real pain
Seriously modern text editors take the pain out of it. The python IDE takes care of it. But fair enough it is a pain when you want to debug some of your code example
if a > 1 :
print "do something
print "do ome more stuff"
print rest of program
if you want to just skip the condition and the do somethign code is very long then you have to replace it when you would've wanted to just
#if a > 1 :
print "do something
print "do ome more stuff"
print rest of program
you have to
#if a > 1 :
if 2 > 1 :
print "do something
print "do ome more stuff"
Sorry but this isn't exactly true. Python has changed over it's time like all languages do. Check out the arguments over case senitivity on the dev mailing list if you want to see.
Privacy is not a right, it's a notion.
Ultimately you have no real privacy. You are required to show where you spend every penny of your money, declare every penny you receive, if the state chooses it can monitor your communications and if they don't like what you think it's off to the mental hospital for some 're-education'. .oO0Oo.
Crimes against property are traditionally dealth with more harshly than crimes against the person save in the extreme (gbh, rape, murder etc.) because minor injuries don't cost much to treat.
