Of course PETA would protest

the use of eels. Homeless to produce static electricity is ok, but poor innicent eels being exploited. Honestly, how could you?

Very amusing

Hey Wil I don't hold PETA in high regard

For example, two references to PET(fill in the blank) on my Future-seeing blog:

"PETV (People for the Ethical Treatment of Vermin) has finally succeeded in adding cockroaches to the endangered species list. Any activity that disrupts a cockroach’s lifestyle is prohibited. The ban specifically prohibits turning on a kitchen light at night."
and,
"Dangerous shot put and hammer throws have been replaced with balloon throws. The use of a balloon is temporary since PETB (People for the Ethical Treatment of Balloons) has filed suit claiming the events disrespect the balloon’s place in the cosmos."

As you can see, I view them as a source of humor. But you're right, the eels would also have to form a union and bargain for benefits.

Growing up in Oregon

I have an intimate knowledge of PETA.

Like when they would raid mink farms and set the minks free, only to find that most of them died as road kill.

Or when they raided the Oregon State University vet school and set free a bunch of rabbits that were trying a new vaccine and spread some wierd disease among the rabbit population of Oregon.

I like the cockroach one, btw, I could totally envision that. I wonder if Obama would flip flop on the eels under PETA pressure though...bet he would.

I can totally see Obama flipping on anything (everything) given enough pressure. So, given that, is he ready to negotiate with Ahmadinejad?
