I know what you mean Charlie.  Some of the stuff I read and hear these days 
is so far removed from what seems to me to be logical that I feel like I'm 
in a bad dream.
I just can't even believe that folks are serious about some of the stuff 
they come up with, BUT THEY ARE.

Please stop the world and let me off. I do not feel like I fit in the 
Earth's society any more.  Read on if you wish.

           “With the economy in bad shape and
the possibility of a deep recession looming, the Environmental
Protection Agency is proposing to levy new taxes—on cows and pigs,”
American Farm Bureau Federation Director of Regulatory Relations Rick
Krause told Wyoming Farm Bureau members at their annual meeting.
Krause spoke in Sheridan on Nov. 7. (Commonly referred to as a fart tax.)
            “This is no
laughing matter,” Krause said.  “The cow tax and the pig tax are parts
of a larger scheme by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to
regulate greenhouse gases under the Clean Air Act.”
“Under the proposal, if a state charged the “presumptive minimum rate”
from the EPA, the cow tax would be $175 per dairy cow, $87.50 per head
for beef cattle and a little more than $20 per pig,” Krause explained. 
(Clearly the regulators like steak better than milk.)
Could anyone name a few celebrities and congress persons who could probably 
out gas a cow about two to one??How long will it be before collector 
tractors come under the same attack??I guess a new tax will prevent a cow 
from passing gas.  Holy cow.  Who could have guessed that.  The inmates 
really are running the asylum.Charlie V. in WNY
