Hello Bob,

>>This issue lights my outrage button.
The cloning of a wild herd is inexcusable.<<

Agree completely, and it brings on a real sense of sadness.
I'm Thankful to those wild beings when they helped feed me durning my stay in Montana as a young man. Now were sitting on the edge of a new era of capitalistic demands.

There was story while back here in New England of cloned Atlantic Salmon in a scientists stainless steel pens...., they were three times the size of wild fish and grew twice as fast. They wanted to start a farm in the ocean for the economy and access to fresh sea water. However these fish farms are not always secure, and the prospect of the cloned varieties escaping and mating with the wild stock was way to real.

But money always wins...

Check out those Smoked Salmon fillets in your stores...
They all say "Natural" but do not say "Wild"... they are all from farmed fish.
Pretty soon it'll say "Natural Cloned Salmon form Wild Stock"
