[QUOTE="Lee VanRoss, post: 1681886, member: 40072"] [B]flounder> [/B]I just ran across your April 30 on Scrapie. I do have a question on the logistics required to perform the work at sheep research station at Edinburg.. 1. No sheep on the area being tested for 7 years ? 2. Replacing topsoil completely for 7 years? This would imply that all the soil down 24 inches would be hauled away and in turn 24 inches of soil would be brought in each year for 7 years!. Perhaps you have some idea of how many cubic yards of dirt that would be required to complete this task? Is there any indication of the size of the test area? Where in Caledonia (Scotland) would one look to find soil that had not been exposed to sheep in the last 400 years? It would seem from the results presented there is evidence of tainted soil being reintoduced to the test area. Perhaps a different methodology would be in order....[B]LVR [/B] [/QUOTE]
