- well, there will be an investigation, but cows get it through their feed. depends where the feed came from. -- nm - loosilu Apr 24, 13:37 2
  - sure, but unless that cow protected its feed like WillHunting does, others will have eaten it too, at least on that farm -- nm - zork Apr 24, 13:39 1

Dairy cows that are older get sold off to make beef. -- nm - bacon Apr 24, 13:32 4
- The USDA gets a lot of things wrong, but the safeguards that prevent the spread of mad cow are actually pretty good. -- nm - loosilu Apr 24, 13:36 2
  - How do I know you aren't infected with Mad Cow which is making you post information to lull us into a false sense of security to spread your kind? -- nm - bacon Apr 24, 13:37 1
    - to spread it, I'd have to kill myself and make you eat my brain. -- nm - loosilu Apr 24, 13:38
- true, but by that point the diseease would manifest. -- nm - loosilu Apr 24, 13:33
Logic is not applicable when discussing irrational fears. -- nm - TWuG Apr 24, 13:31
