I'm sorry, but I'm an engineer and I have a fetish for numbers. Could you quantify the harm that is being done by the methods you oppose? If not, then we really don't have a basis for making decisions. In fact, this tirade looks like a bunch of over-the-top descriptions meant to appeal to peoples' emotions and prejudices - that is, baseless fearmongering.

As opposed to what, baseless accusations of fear mongering? I live in North Carolina, and if you drive through Cape Fear with the windows open you wouldn't be so sure of yourself. It is not my responsibility to educate you with every comment that I make. My comment was a response to the article, and it's absurdities. If you are too lazy, or perhaps you just don't care enough to look the details of factory farming up for yourself, why are you willing to publicly denounce other people on the same topic?
