felt by "numb" cows and us. it is a scientific fact. it is not a
theory...or a likelyhood...it is a bona-fied, reality. i suppose youre now
going to demand a source? damn. fine...lemme see if i can find it. but in
the meantime, please feel assured that like it or not, this is true.

[Jake] Hmmmm... This is a first for me. I have discussed this before many
times in different crowds with lots of people foaming at the mouth on both
sides and no one has brought this up to me before. And now you AND Hermit.
Well, much as I respect you both, my default on this has to stay at roughly
---> other mammals have essentially the same nervous system as humans do
except for humans having greater cerebral capacity, and even that still
analogs the rest of mammalian brains except for relative size, therefore I
would tend to believe that they experience basic physiological things like
physical pain in similar ways to us<--- So, yes, I DO want to see something
on this "numbness" that you claim blesses our bovine cousins. And somehow I
think that if it is out there, you guys will find it for me. It's not really
a "like it or not" thing for me either. I am genuinely curious. Is it just
bovines, or do all other mammals save humans share in this blessing??
Hmmmmmm, if so, this human thing sucks worse than I thought.
