		<description>GINA:

Now is the time to pull up your death and illness records and make a clone. Delete the names and addresses and any sensitive information; leave in the city, state, etc. Once cleaned up and any duplicate entries deleted, email the new file to all the AP reporters, major broadcast stations, etc.
I believe that once they see documentation they will start thinking bigger numbers. 
I&#039;ve volunteering my services in setting up the cloned file and making it ready for mass publication.
You know how to get in touch with me.</description>

		<description>I wrote up what happened to my 12 yr old Tonk (cat) Mackie - Thursday, April 26, 2007
Time for a petfood lawsuit? Read and decide. 

MACK was poisoned twice, and the second time with NATURAL BALANCE. I sent them an email and called them last week when only their Venison and Peas was on the list, and begged them to check as Mackie was sick all over again. 

Okay I&#039;m reasonable but something might have slipped their testing but you know what: THEY ARE POSTING ON THEIR WEBSITE NO PETS GOT SICK. THAT&#039;S BS: I BEGGED THEM TO PAY ATTENTION. 

I THOUGHT NATURAL BALANCE WAS DIFFERENT BUT I SHOULD KNOW BETTER GIVEN WHO THEY ARE AND THEIR SPECIFIC OLD BOY CONNECTIONS BEHIND ALL THIS. FOR PEOPLE WEANED IN INFOMERCIAL LAND, THEY HAVE BEEN SO TRAINED TO PRODUCE SHAMELESS HYPOCRISY SO SLICKLY, A GREATER LAWSUIT SHOULD BE IN STORE.</description>

		<description>Well, looks like nobody followed the boss&#039;s orders for Directive-9.  Oh, guess they didn&#039;t have time.  It&#039;s only been 2 years.  No wonder they&#039;re all being so elusive.</description>

		<description>Sandra, depending on how many months ago your pet stopped eating the contaminated food, it *may* be possible for some crystals to still be seen in the urine.  I work in a vet clinic and listened to a teleconference yesterday where one of the speakers indicated that some crystals were seen in follow-up testing of urine sediment.  The theory was that as the renal tubules repaired themselves that they released some remaining melamine crystals into the urine. This is just a theory for how that happened.  Since this has never happened before, there are way too many unknowns in all of this.</description>
