I've met the odd lunatic in my time - oops, sorry, I meant vegetarian. Inevitably there will be some sloppy thinking about "we are all animals" or "morally we are no better than animals if we eat them" or other sentimental tripe. However they're usual willing enough to take medication that's been tested on animals. Which brings me to today's story. A malaria treatment that's been tested on animals looks like a break-through - http://www.guardian.co.uk/science/2008/ ... ch.malaria

Or we could always revert to using DDT, which was well on the way to wiping out malaria until Rachel Carson's sloppy research got published - http://www.junkscience.com/ddtfaq.html
