Can't anyone express an opinion without a lengthy badgering ???????

You never said WHAT academic degree you hold ????  As for BHA & BHT
having the ability to cause cancer who really knows ???  There are so
many studies that bombard us daily claiming that just about everything
has a dark side .  First aspirin was said to be a cure all , then years
later said to cause ulcers , know it's part of a daily regiment by heart
healthy people because it helps thin blood and reduce the likelihood of
heart attacks.  I would imagine that the average ferret owner is NOT
someone who would read someone's opinion and immediately run through out
the house checking every box of food for the EVIL element (if there is
someone out there that would do this , please switch to decaf).
 
As for writing messages and replies with emotion, you can't count
yourself out , you just hid it better with long drawn out sentences .  We
all write with some sort of emotion, THIS LIST SERVE IS HERE FOR PEOPLE
WHO LOVE FERRETS , WE ARE ALL EMOTIONAL ...
 
Fire away , I don't care , you already badgered me, I was just waiting
for my turn :-P

[Moderator's note: Hey, badgers are Mustelidae, just like ferrets!  I
think they are both often misunderstood... take a deep breath and give
your ferrets some hugs.  BIG]
