My wife Avalanche Lily suggested this article about home dairy goats in the cities and suburbs: A Pet That Makes Milk. (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, “…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, Wikilawyering, and manufacturing artificial “neutral” viewpoints. They are relentless, yet they maintain their Teflon sheen. Even the very existence of cabals is denied. (You have to look hard to find any evidence in Wikipedia, itself.)

Denny V. wrote to note: “Recently, the LDS [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.”
