Buy local. Buy organic. If you ate today, thank a farmer, hopefully a small, local farmer.
Remember the thousands & thousands of pets that died to give US a wake-up call about the safety of ALL food.

I can't get it to work. It tries to connect, and then stops.

I hope and pray that they publish a transcript. Every pet owner should read it .. and hopefully we could share it with others.. pfi and media... Karen's website My Pet Project.. http://petprofessionals.meetup.com/16/Your meeting fee of $15.00 sponsors random laboratory testing of commercial dog food and treats to rebuild trust in the food system.
Members will enjoy discounts on Trust Pet Cuisine meals. Trust is safe made from locally sourced human-quality ingredients, balanced, chef cooked and delivered fresh to the meeting or directly to your door.
Your organizer, Karen Fraser, is considered a networking expert and is a life long pet enthusiast and co-founder of PETitionz.org, the inspiration for the My Pet Projects Meetup Groups
I know this is Canadian, but it looks like there's an opportunity to join in very large numbers .. especially due to the volume of canadian pet foods used in the us and vice versa... Monday March 18th they start and are delivering locally and fresh frozen in Ontario "to start" The radio program will restart all weekend... I'll be listening again.. the sadness in the song is heartbreaking .. in memory of Geneva, in concern for Ling & Miss Kitty for me... and all the others here and all over.. heartbreaking.. "Make a change".. we just have to join up in numbers to make all this happen... I don't see how we can do this without the numbers...

I had to "disable" something on the top of the page---offy posted it and it worked for me---if you still can't get it let me know---maybe I can audio record it? just don't tell the fcc

Don Earl: excellent job! Don's talking about rendering garbage (road kill, euthanized pets, animal parts that pets can't digest) into pet food.
Way to go, Don!!
I believe the show is running back to back all weekend. I was listening a little after 9 a.m., and the show came on again at 10 a.m. Hopefully, it IS on non-stop.

The acetaminophen part really got to me too. I wish they could tell us which co's have tested clean now.Pretty sad that 1 of the only co's to test clean has such poor ingredients.Accutrace had told me about 2,but 1 later had problems also. My Purina 1 results don't count because Vit E is not a toxin. I guess any food that just is off on protein,fat,or vit & mineral content would also not count.So basically if all those things are important to you, there is no safe food right now. Hopefully some pf co's listened & will start using ExperTox & putting the test results on their websites. Dr Lykesstra [sp?] did say a lot more pf co's are using them now.It would be great if NV is reading this too.

Finally got it to work on a different computer, and what an excellent program it was.

Since I was not able to be online when the program was on, I really hope that there will be a transcript or a downloadable podcast available.

Don, that's the part that still has me muddled. Some pets immediately became sick, not just the old or already health impaired. Immediately ill. Dead in a day or two.
Coupled with the toxicologist and other pathologists remarking about the massive necrosis leads me to believe there is another lethal ingredient not yet identified (or identified and denied). The crystals blocked tubules and caused renal failure. I haven't found anything yet that says that also causes massive cell death. It also doesn't explain the liver damage.
As far as acetaminophen, it was mentioned multiple times in the pfi magazine articles. That was a lot of attention and study for something that wasn't there, or called a "hoax" by a lab (one heavily in bed with the pfi).
