If someone thinks natural materials such as wood, cotton, or wool are exempted, they should cite the section. I can't find any such exemption in the law.

I've also read the law and have been following the issue for about a month. There are no exemptions. It will put an end to at least a few hundred thousand American small businesses. Handmade children's items will all be outlawed because they cannot be tested. (Combustability test doesn't exactly work with unique items.) It's insane.

The phrase "yada yada" is originally Sanskrit and appears in Bhagavad-gita a few times, meaning "whatever," "whenever," or "whenever," depending on the context.

My guru, His Holiness Bhaktimarga Swami, a Hare Krishna monk, has walked across Canada, coast to coast, three times.

I've been studying precisely this problem with tremendous interest for over fifteen years, since halfway through getting my Environmental Studies degree.

The solution relates to the fact that it takes ten times the land to feed a typical meat-eater compared to a vegetarian. It also takes 100 times the water to produce meat compared to vegetables and grains.

If people quit killing animals for food, there would be more than enough agricultural land to feed us and to provide for our biofuel energy needs. Many of our other environmental problems would be greatly reduced or solved as well by the simple act of choosing vegetarian meals.
