You are mistaken about John Robbins. He gave up the Basking Robbins fortune because he noticed his relatives who ate a lot of their own product were plugging their hearts and dying at a relatively early age. He was disinherited as a young man. This is a little biographical blurb. I'm sure I could find more detail if I had more time: John Robbins is the author of Diet for a New America and The Food Revolution. He is a spokesman for healthy and sustainable living, founder of EarthSave, and chairman of Youth for Environmental Sanity (YES). While he was an heir to the Baskin-Robbins company, Robbins gave it up to pursue ethical and environmental causes. Ish, when you are exposed to new information and descredit it simply making fun of someone or challenging their expertise, that is not very fair, really. If you read the article I posted and then challenged it on the specific points it makes, that is a fair argument. Can you do that? I would take that seriously. But you have not put forth any reason I should doubt the information it provides or the conclusions it reaches simply by making fun of the author. I would be interested in your real arguments, though.
