For whatever it's worth, NPR reports this morning that DNA has positively proven the cow to be from Alberta. I suppose that allows the investigation to be narrowed some, but certainly should not be considered an indictment of Alberta's (or Canada's) cattle industry.
To some extent, this entire Mad Cow thing reminds me of the SARS and Flu "epidemics." They are something to taken seriously, but in reality a lot more people die of AIDS, heart disease and any number of other diseases yearly. Or in traffic accidents. Or in shootings.
Much ado about an itty bitty something.
