now for blue fin tuna

[MontrealRon]

Being at the top of the food chain, tuna contains very high levels of mercury.

I guess there is some justice in that those who eat it regularly are slowly but surely poisoning themselves...

I eat canned tuna (albacore) almost daily. I eat my eggs with the yolks. I eat red meat and dairy. I consume alcohol. I smoke cigars.

We're all dying. I try not to be afraid to live.

On a side note, KG, you've mentioned Japan any number of times. With regards to tuna you use the term mediterranean - why not Italy and France?

I'm assuming so you'll continue to be invited on board your friend's yacht.....

I do much the same, only I eat canned salmon (wild, from Alaska) instead.

I am also in the process of having all the mercury amalgam fillings removed from my teeth.

Sure, we're all dying, but I still look both ways before stepping into traffic.

I also have mentioned Japan,China,and Canada,Iceland,could also include Spain,Portugal,Italy,France,Turkey, Morroco.....etc

Doesn't matter where the boat sailed from,the tuna is still dead,and nearing extinction.

Maybe we should refer to the fisherpeople as fisherpeople,or homo sapiens,although that name doesnt fit too well in this instance,in case we offend any of the perportrating nations.

semantics.

It's just bad farming leading to death of a species.

semantics.

Make no mistake, I've said it here more than once - I believe humans are the foulest creatures on the planet, and that what we do to animals, we do

to ourselves.

I still say Ken is a fence sitter.

do you actually read anything? i've mentioned a number of countries, including ourselves. i know that many americans are deeply challenged by geography and apologies if i thought that mentioning the med might cover those countries.

as for my mate, again if you ever read anything, he is an aussie based in london (with a kiwi capt and a shef that used to work in the white house, and senior crew from the pacific) so go and buy yourself something called an atlas. it would help.
