can't you only get mad cow if you eat cow brains, or any part of the cow's nervous system?

I believe those parts have been banned for sale and consumption in the US. Doesn't mean it isn't in hotdogs... but i'm just sayin...

Our government inspectors would never allow such items to get into our food supply

I'm not the one fretting away like an old woman about a virtually non-existent threat.

And Loke is right. Either I'm a prick, or a vagina... make up your mind.

who said anything about "fretting away"? not me.. i was talking about you being condescending, saying that you were being a dick, and acting like a bitch who had sand in her vagina. so learn how to read.

Here's the scary part: symptoms (at least in humans) don't show up for ~10 years after consuming contaminated meat.

What if the same holds true in cows? I wonder how long a cow can have this sickness and not show symptoms, and if that means the animal can get into our food chain before there's any reason to do testing on it.

i actually read an article before that said over 10,000 cases of mad cow disease were misdiagnosed as alzheimer's.

No sand here. Act (or in this case, overreact) like an idiot and I'll call you on it.
