Oh, I was wondering where the part of your screed was gonna come out as crazy. Human consumption of dairy is thousands of years old.

Please follow the HN guidelines [1]:
When disagreeing, please reply to the argument instead of calling names. "That is idiotic; 1 + 1 is 2, not 3" can be shortened to "1 + 1 is 2, not 3."
