If anyone is interested there will be a Menu Foods recall anniversary webcast this Sunday at 2 PM Eastern. I was interviewed for the program, and since I've never tried anything like that, it's hard saying how that part came out, but the rest of the line up sounds interesting.
Here are the details I received from Karen this morning:

You can send them your story ideas for the March 16, 2008 pet food recall anniversary.
Saturday March 16th is the anniversary of last year's major tainted pet food recall. Why is this a women's issue? In the 40 billion dollar US pet industry the average consumer is a 40 year old woman. They bought the food that killed or permanently injured thousands of companion animals. On PETitionz.org, 94% of the more than 167,000 visitors are women. Plus many women viewed the dead pets as canaries in the global coal mine: a warning that our children could be the next sacrifice.
The day will open with a song for the companion animals lost "Make a Change" written by well known composer and lyricist Yohanna Venderkley. There will be an interview with the lawyer involved with the first law suits versus Menu Foods, pet owners one year later, pet food testing labs and people working to restore trust in the food system.
