Learn the history. Do research.

The hypocrisy, double standard, prejudice and bigotry own by some people is so obvious.Shame on them!

For anyone who hasn't got it, I highly recommend 'The Animal Lover's Book' - especially as it has a DW. Its a really nice book and is actually more of a novel than a nature book, despite the title!
'Oh voice of Spring of Youth
hearts mad delight,
Sing on, sing on, and when the sun is gone
I'll warm me with your echoes
through the night.'

(E. Blyton, Sunday Times, 1951)

It was a nuisance. An adventure was one thing - but an adventure without anything to eat was quite another thing. That wouldn't do at all. (The Valley of Adventure)

MrPunch, did you get a pm reply from me? As I've not heard from you I wondered if the message had gone to you or floating about in cyberspace somewhere! If you're busy that's fine, but I didn't want you thinking I was ignoring you :D .
