    Too many similar incidences happening lately to be just mere coincidence.

    If it's not an accident my next guess would be that the owner did it to collect insurance? Another guess might be it's more of a domestic terrorism attack or something? I saw an interesting set of statistics yesterday. I couldn't find that but IIRC right leaning terrorists had about 3 times more fatal incidents than left leaning terrorists incidents. Here's another article I found on it though.

    quote:
    When compared to individuals associated with a right-wing ideology, individuals adhering to a left-wing ideology had 68% lower odds of engaging in violent (vs. nonviolent) radical behavior (b = −1.15, SE = 0.13, odds ratio [OR] = 0.32, P < 0.001). On the other hand, the difference between individuals motivated by Islamist and right-wing causes was not significant (b = 0.05, SE = 0.14, OR = 1.05, P = 0.747). Expressed in terms of predicted probabilities, the probability of left-wing violent attack was 0.33, that of right-wing violent attack was 0.61, and that of Islamist violent attack was 0.62.

    My take: Take particular care to avoid right-wing Islamists. Maybe the probability is cumulative: 0.61 + 0.62 = 1.23. Or wait - doesn't 1.0 (or above??) mean a certainty, rather than a probability? Hmmm - I don't wanna test that one! :)

    In school I took one statistics class. I've spent the rest of my life never using any statistics and doing my best to forget what little I learned in that one class.
    :D

    Appears and I speculate we are facing a silent war and it maybe getting ready to spawn across America.
    Is our food supply is being eradicated?
    I hope to be wrong on this.

    Yet, people may want to increase their emergency backup, be it dried food etc.
    One never knows when it may become handy.
    Be it weather, environmental or wars etc.

    Mormons stockpile emergency food supplies. If anyone would like tips on the best way to do this then I suggest using them as a source. Tips such as the best ways to store, what to store, how to cycle through one's stock to keep it fresh, etc.

    Maybe the COWS themselves have an equivalent to right-wing Islamists and it was an inside job.

    HOLY COW!

    Better than a stored food supply is the knowledge to grow your own. Stored food will only last a finite amount of time. Gardening can be done indefinitely. Plus, it just plain tastes better.

    Sure- why not? We've all heard of Mad Cow Disease - Creuzfeldt-Jakob disease in humans...

    I understand there is a huge conflict between black&white versus white&black cows.
