[AT] Livestock ID

[George Willer]

That's a step in the right direction, Dan.  Do you suppose they've
considered the catfish farmer?  I hope my woodchucks don't put me in

give them a relatively tranquil I.D. implant.  What about the muskrats?  I
hope I don't become a violator with these !#$%^ moles.

Sheesh!
