<<register for the Guardian and read about hormones and mad cow disease

This research is interesting, read it.
I've been following discussion closely, and from what I can find out there are near as many opinions on cause of mad cow disease as there are researchers. I had seen something a couple of months ago from the highly reguarded Vet school at Texas A&M which showed indications it could only be transported cross species in an anti-biotic heavy environment. Yet others have attached import to a like protein which is very long lived.

I leaning toward the long lived protein transfer theory better, as it more closely also describes how disease can be transfered to humans from eating squirrel brains.

When I read scientific papers which which can prove both cause & cure......I know the squirrels don't get fed heavy doses of hormones or antibiotics.
