suppressed chicken histories

[Henry Musikar]

LOL! My 15 year old daughter saw through this. The cost of (below) minimum 
wage workers cleaning chickens is nothing compared to attaching life support 
systems to millions of a new, expensively bred artificial organism. And yet, 
many people will believe this kind of wild internet legend (see guy wakes up 
in ice bath with kidney missing). Apply Occam's Axe. If it smashes 
something, you probably never lost it to begin with.
