Pet Food, Pork and Poultry Poisonings

Hey Gang,

I've written another piece about the recent pet food, pork and poultry poisonings. As you may remember, the FDA has reported that thousands of farm animals have eaten melamine, a nitrogen-rich chemical used in plastics, fertilizers, cookware and flame retardants. Yummy, huh?

Here's the URL to my story. I've tried to answer three fundamental questions: 1) Why did they do it? 2) Why are we worried and 3) Where did it come from?
