Default Health Warning

http://www.timesonline.co.uk/article...522982,00.html

I read this and this line caught my eye.
"Health experts have called for a ban on imports of poultry feathers from
Asia. "

In all seriousness, this could devistate the fly fishing industry,
especially since so many of our flies come from Asia. Yah know, those here
in the US often hear "Buy American," chants from assorted groups. I ignore
them, knowing that this is a global economy. Might start listening if this
situation gets any worse.

This reminds me of a warning I heard about how the Ford company has a
recall on its Mercury model. In them, they have discovered traces of
tuna fish.

Badumdum.
