Message: here is a good link on the USDA tracking plans www.cio.com/archive/030104/tl_inventory.html and from this link: (www.msnbc.msn.com/id/5403422/) "...Last month, the USDA initiated a national testing program to check for mad cow disease in about 200,000 or more animals it considers high-risk. It will cover just a fraction of the 37 million U.S. cows slaughtered annually, though officials have expressed confidence in their "targeted" approach..." doesn't set well with my digestive system...even if the check was against 1,000,000 that is only 1 in 37. (john: Assuming we make every college report... ) this is all about tracking and numbers. what it sounds like to me is, we agree not everyone is counted... you are saying it is impossible; i'm saying there are better ways in which to do this, and "impossible" is not an answer. if BLS wants to hire me to figure out the best way to count, i'd consider the job. i'm not going to work for (them) free of charge.
