On a more proactive note, if you are healthy please consider donating blood. I'm beginning to understand how huge a gift that is. xoxo/m

@katcal Surely there's a test for the presence of Mad Cow? Unless it's just ridiculously expensive, it seems easy enough to screen for.
@katcal Of course, the French are very (rightfully) proud of their beef. I had some local beef while in Limoge that was exquisite. :D
@katcal Oh, that's right - it's a prion. They are an entirely different animal than viral or bacterial infections. Bad pun, need sleep ;)

@mollydotcom I donate as often as I can. I reached 1 gallon last year and was super proud.

@mollydotcom @stefsull I don't think us English can give blood. At least in Europe. They think we all have mad cows, or something.
