I Harvard, var der engang et universitet. Nu er det noble universitet blevet til en luksusanstalt for de uhelbredelige svagtsindede. Walter Willett, en af de indsatte (i sin triste uhelbredelige vildfarelse kalder han sig selv for en "Professor i Ernæring"), har i volapyk til en velmenende besøgende fra
Business Insider sagt at "spisende en diæt som er høj i rødt kød vil underminere klimaets bæredygtighed."
Så farvel til gamle Englands roastbeef. Så ivrige er vi i det gamle land efter vores søndagsroast (stegt rød og skåret i tykke skiver) at franskmændene kalder os for
les rosbifs. Men "Professoren" (for vi må føje ham ved at lade ham tro at han er kvalificeret til at tale om ernæring) ønsker at sætte en stop til al det.
As strikingly ignorant of all but the IPCC Party Line as others in that hopeless hospice for hapless halfwits, he overlooks the fact that the great plains of what is now the United States of America were once teeming with millions upon millions of eructating, halating ruminants. Notwithstanding agriculture, there are far fewer ruminants now than there were then.
The "Professor" drools on: "It's bad for the person eating it, but also really bad for our children and our grandchildren, so that's something I think we should totally, strongly advise against. It's — in fact — irresponsible."
It may be that the "Professor" - look how fetchingly he adjusts his tinfoil hat to a rakish angle - does not accept the theory of evolution. If, however, that theory is correct, the Earth is somewhat older than the 6000 years derived by the amiably barmy Bishop Ussher counting the generations since Abraham.
