I just read a common quote of how can you be a medical school student
and a veggie?

I sort of have a related dilema and want people's opinions...

I have a job application that asks if I am willing to work with
laboratory animals.  I don't have a problem with it if I don't feel
cruel...if I'd do it to humans I don't think its cruel..   I realie that
the rest of "society" has a different definition of cruelty.  The one
area I have a problem with is when you're done with the mice what do you
do with them...a common pracctice as I understand it is an overdosse of
anistetic.  I don't think this is right but cannot come up with any
alternatives.  Any ideas?
