FR is known for its cat lovers.

Better known for its' cat fights. In the good ol' days, Sungirl and Fawn could really get the fur flying.

From the article:
Indoor cats pose no threat, he says, because they don’t carry the parasite. As for outdoor cats, they shed the parasite for only three weeks of their life, typically when they’re young and have just begun hunting. During that brief period, Flegr simply recommends taking care to keep kitchen counters and tables wiped clean. (He practices what he preaches: he and his wife have two school-age children, and two outdoor cats that have free roam of their home.) Much more important for preventing exposure, he says, is to scrub vegetables thoroughly and avoid drinking water that has not been properly purified, especially in the developing world, where infection rates can reach 95 percent in some places. Also, he advises eating meat on the well-done side—or, if that’s not to your taste, freezing it before cooking, to kill the cysts.

Really? FR is KNOWN for its cat lovers? And all this time I thought it was known for political activism...silly me.

Lord I love tweaking you sanctimonious twits about your little 4-legged demon spawn.

And chessplayer it's proper etiquette to actually ping the person whose murder you're wishing for... But,hey, welcome to the sanctimonious twit club!
