My wife Avalanche Lily suggested this article about home dairy goats in the cities and suburbs: A Pet That Makes Milk [3]. (Well, “pet” is probably not the best term, since bucklings are traditionally sold for eventual butcher, and retired does usually go in the chest freezer.)

Reader J.H. suggested Conservapedia [4], “…as Yin for Wikipedia’s Yang”.He also mentioned that it is a good resource for homeschoolers. JWR Adds: At least Conservapedia admits it has a bias. But the cabals of partisan agitprop rule Wikipedia with an iron fist. Wikipedia is noticeably biased toward socialism and against Christianity. The cabals systematically engage in POV pushing [5], Wikilawyering [6], and manufacturing artificial “neutral” viewpoints [7]. They are relentless, yet they maintain their Teflon sheen. Even the very existence of cabals is denied. (You have to look hard [8] to find any evidence in Wikipedia, itself.)

Denny V. wrote to note: “Recently, the LDS [9] [Bishop’s Warehouse] cannery here in North Carolina has changed their policies and non-LDS members can no longer use their facilities unless accompanied by a LDS member. I am told it is now a nationwide policy change. You may wish to check on it. I had an appointment for April 6th and it was canceled by the cannery, since I am not a LDS member.”
