Same story, like when I was invited to a Jap restaurant in Osaka by my old Japanese buddy, who runs and controls a billion $ revenue trading company in Tokyo, we got that sashimi fish in, which was well alive and rolling the eyes. My buddy, a practical person, pulled some pieces of skin over the eyes: "I don't like watching the eye movements while eating the belly meat", was his reason given. Didn't quite get it, because I had no problems with that. Salvador Dalí once wrote an essay about how to prepare food from animals in the best of ways. Which in his opinion and according to his research meant as little 'preparing' as ever possible. "The more alive it is and and the more the animal suffers while being eaten, the better it tastes" was his idea based on his extensive research into old books. You know, the same Dalí, who first arrived in Paris in a leased Rolls Royse filled up with cabbage heads :) No doubt CJ can elaborate on this based on Wikie. Or maybe not?... But it's a fact. "I have always lived like a millionaire, even when I couldn't afford it!". Dalí was my kind of guy, no liberal and that is for certain. Taro
