Just want all you Freepers to know that Cr6 is an unnatural product that is toxic but bears no relation to the essential dietary element Cr3 (the numbers refer to available electrons).

I'd give a long, hard look at PETA and other "eco"-terrorists as the possible culprits.

Thanks for sharing that. . .

Wondering if this was a test of some kind by someone who has bigger plans. . .or, just some sick kids playing 'terrorist' or something. Is this stuff mentioned on the internet (silly question; no doubt).

I really hope the Authorities get a clue soon as to what happened here.

Perhaps some of these cows need to wear tiny video recorders; maybe just inside a cowbell?

I distill water regularly, last week there was a reddish-brown sustance in the bottom of the distiller - that was never there before. Now I am wondering if it was Cr6.

My bet is union thugs escalating the Darigold boycott.

I would consider PETA and other animal rights activists as prime suspects in this.

What would the motive be, I wonder, the means and opportunity should provide clues, as well.

Chromium 6 is used by pharmaceutical and chemical companies to make new materials and by heavy industrial operations to clean aluminum and glass.

Is there any pharmaceutical or chemical companies nearby? If so, I would be suspicious that it was an envirolib job. Perhaps the enviros threw the compound on the cows with an intention for the compound to deliberately infect milk so that the kooks could point at nearby industry as the culprit, but they used too much of it.

I read this story the same day I read this other unrelated story, which made me think:
