Ohhhhhhh this is so infuriating to me!
He is lucky you (dawn) didn't post his contact info. . . or I am afraid I would have to write him personally and give him some country 'learnin.
I am the farmer he is talking about. I am a third generation, college educated (in animation, not business ~take that!) organic, farmers market vendor, barely-makin-it-to-feed-his-lazy-a**-farmer.
If he is so smart and wants corporate farmed food then he should limit himself to Tang and Ensure for his entire diet! Obviously he has a deficiency that doesn't allow him to think things out.
Oh and FYI corporate farms just contract family farms to grow their foods for them. . .with ridiculous rules and regulations to "insure" their crops.
Seriously I have to go outside and beat some dirt to get this dudes mentality away from me but first I am going to write the Editor of The Denver Post. . .
Best,

Okay ladies. First of all, some sympathy for the farmers struggling in Colorado. Secondly, not everyone can be as wonderful as farmgirls and boys. We have to allow for some adverstiy in this world otherwise it'd be really boring. If those kinds of people choose to eat, think and do the way that they eat think and do, then let them. Like FebruaryViolet said, its probably someone sitting around thinking of something to say to get a rise outta everyone.
So if you're still fired up, turn it into something positive and start a local movement near you. Contact me for a copy of my Maven Brochure "Where Have All The Good Seed Gone?" copy it and distribute. Believe me, there were FAR more positive farming comments than that one, I just found that particular one to be mind boggling.....and humorous in my dark and shadowy way.
