Mad Cow Website
I apologize if this has been posted before. It's the website of Colm A. Kelleher Ph.D. He was on the Coast to Coast AM radio show a few days ago, and what he had to say about Mad Cow/CJD would curl your hair.

Dr. Kelleher discussed the following bizarre news on the radio show, and it is particularly disturbing:

Here's a brief excerpt from the above page:
"Bush's USDA prohibits private BSE testing
USDA officials say that they sympathize with Creekstone and similar operations hurt by the bans imposed by Japan and other nations, but that agreeing to the company's request could imply there is a safety issue with American beef and usher in an era of expensive testing that has no scientific justification.
The issue is not the effectiveness of the testing itself, as Creekstone would be working under the auspices of an academic lab that the USDA has approved for mad cow testing. Rather, the agency objects to the very idea of testing every animal, including younger ones."
This was the reply of the USDA to a request by Creekstone to test every animal so that they could continue to export to Japan. The USDA prohibited this under an obscure 1914 law that gives the USDA the authority to intervene in some cases.
