Hi all, 

This is a list created specifically for the Thistle issue
on veg*ism. (I also cc'ed it to vsg-officers and vsg-action.)
Here is an update of what stories are planned
and what you have agreed to write. Please email me if you have
any questions or need any leads. 

First drafts should be emailed to me by MARCH 9 (a week from 
Saturday). These can be rough if need be. FINAL DRAFTS DUE 
MARCH 13. 

Things to consider:
-------------------
-be thinking of GRAPHICS or ILLUSTRATIONS that would work
	well with your piece
-scan the list of topics and see if you can think of any 
	glaring omissions, for instance:
-**would someone like to make a list of nutrients that are
	commonly (and incorrectly) thought to be hard to
	obtain from vegetarian sources and where they 
	can be obtained? (e.g. protein = just about anything,
	iron = leafy green vegetables, etc.)


Veg-issue topics:
-----------------

The Politics of Nutrition (Laura & Matt)
Factory Farming (Nedda A.)
Meat and the Environment (Aaron)
The Great American Meatout (Ed)
McLibel Trial Update (Matt)
Overview of Scientific Studies Supporting Veg*ism (Laura & Matt)
Social Justice and Vegetarianism (Steve Karian)
Common Myths about Vegetarianism (Susan)
Famous Vegetarians - compilation (Richard)

THANKS TO EVERYONE!!!
