Topless protestors urge end to foie gras 'cruelty'

PETA (pronounced like "pita" but much less useful) with another show of er... force:

Animal rights protesters went topless today to expose what they described as the "naked cruelty" involved in creating foie gras.
I have to say that, aside of the usual pointlessness and stupidity, this time PETA show a somewhat refined choice of protesters, at least from that angle.

Of course, PETA are not concerned much with their own cruelty to some senior citizens with high blood pressure and other maladies that will definitely watch this picture. But these are the ways of PETA, so what could I say more.

Only this, related news item:
Two satellites, one Russian and one American, have collided some 800 kilometers (500 miles) above Siberia, the Russian and U.S. space agencies, said Thursday.
I believe I don't have to explain what the operators of these two satellites were busy with while the girls strutted around Selfridges.

At least, I hope that they saved the clips...

P.S. If PETA really think that this expo will give me a turn off where foie grass is concerned - bring them on!

Besides, let Brits quit the habit - there always will be Paris.
