		<description>Don't sweat the deletion.

(Note:  I'm not trying to take these possibilities seriously; there's just even more potential for absurdity when you apply Miller's Law, or "Assume for the moment a statement is true, and try to figure out what it would be true of."  Extrapolation of the absurd is fun.)

Looking at it from a purely economic standpoint, there are a lot more difficulties with the breastmilk issue than who was originally supposed to drink the stuff.  One:  you'd have to pay the donor, and I find it highly unlikely that the amount you'd have to pay would be less than it takes to maintain a cow long enough to get the same amount.  Two, you'd have to find people to milk, and I imagine a higher percentage of people would a. be squicked by the prospect and b. have the opportunity to refuse.  Financially viable?  Not so much.</description>

		<description>Lannaxe - I know, right?  But are the worse things crueler to create than the milking of a cow?  Better to milk women, apparently. ;)

dletus - It's people!  We're eating people!  Soilent Green is people! :P

Ravyn - Sorry about the delete.  Well, it would appear that since the best use of breast milk is a fattening sweet, we'll just deprive the world's infants to get the milk to make it.  Sound good?

I'm glad it wasn't just me who thought it sounded like vamp porn.  It just read like those spam e-mails I get for hot, horny asian singles ready to party for me on webcam.  (Remember, they think I'm a hot guy...)

Hmm...one can only assume they're on the internet in lieu of drinking the blood of their neighbors.  I mean, what's the alternative?  Their neighbor is bound and gagged in the corner while this nut job is on computer, telling us how much they want to drink blood while laughing maniacally?</description>

		<description>The following comment was left yesterday by Ravyn and accidentally got deleted by me at 3:30 in the morning because I meant to hit approve and hit delete. :(  The URL is: http://exchangeofrealities.today.com

"Even leaving aside the other issues with the change in base ingredient, how the heck would they get enough breast milk to remain commercially viable, anyway?  I mean, come on, they'd have a hard enough time just getting enough for an overpriced specialty line!
 
I liked the line about the "real vampires".  You're right, that does sound like a tagline for somebody's attempt at cheap porn.
 
....wanting blood, huh?  Well, we can think positive--at least they're scouring the internet rather than going after their neighbors... right?  RIGHT?"</description>

		<description>Kidding? Me? I'm serious. We need to become self-sufficient and stop relying on other species. Start milking mothers to provide the cream in my coffee. Funerals will be a thing of the past as the deceased are sent to the sausage, burger, and bologna factory. 

While we're at it we can put a stop to harming defenseless plants and grind the deceased's bones to make the flour to make our pancakes that we smother in spinal fluid syrup. Yum!</description>
