All you people who laughed at me being so awe inspired when Lance brought a bunch of internet famous people to our cocktail party, check this out.

Despite my horror at showing New Zealand in this light to the world, there is a good side to this story of animal abuse. What I love about this story, is that it was broken by a blogger who writes about finance and economics and went above and beyond the theory to the reality of what some of these things mean – in this case, someone using the recession as an excuse for starving calves.

On behalf of people who care about animals and who are sick of people hiding behind academia and theory, thanks Bernard for caring, and for using your influence to make a difference.
