NewScientist The Last Word

Answers

Digesting Gum Jon, several years ago I was helping with some deprived city kids who had come to the small English village that I was living in for a vacation. When I realised that they had no idea where eggs came from, I took them to look at my chickens and we got some fresh eggs from under a hen and cooked them. I often wonder if anyone believed them when they went home.

Reply	ecstatist says: One delightful (approx) 7 year old girl informed me that it was really clever how the factory put the plastic between the egg part and the shell. Similarly out of thirty, 15 to 17 year old city dwellers, two discovered on a farm that milk came from cows and promptly stopped drinking it. Quaintly it is strange that modern toy trains are mostly "steam locomotives." (no votes) Tags: health, gum.
