Just a news excerpt regarding live lobsters and fish that I picked up:
> Two recent lobster happenings: the NBC Today show fiasco when a
>guest cook snapped apart a live lobster and hostess grimaced and jumped
>back, alarmed at what had just taken place; secondly, Mary Tyler Moore
>attempting to purchase a 65-year old lobster (offering $1000) so that it
>could be released, while bloated Rush Limbaugh has offered $2000 so that
>it can be boiled alive.
Bleagh!
I'll update if I hear more.
Any thoughts out there about lobsters kept in tanks at restaurants for
patron consumption?
