Mother Cow report Card on Chakra

[Guest guest]

I am noticing in t he Mother Cow article on Chakra there are assumptions

made about calves born there. I was wondering if you are sure all those

calfs were born there. I seem to recollect that some of the cows were listed

with many more calves than possiblely could have been born at Mother Cow

since the date she was acquired. some of the calves may have been born

previously. was the number of calves born there explicitly stated or were

you adding the numbers up besides each cows picture?

Madhava Gosh prabhu, yes I noticed that fact. What I did to adjust for

it was to calculate one cow per year for each year that the cow has been

with the project. One cow had 10 cows, but had only been with the

project 3 years, so I only counted 3 calves from her. There were two or

three other ones which I subtracted calves from also. I think that the

total number of calves was closer to 60, but I only listed 50 in my

calculations, because I didn't think they could have all been born at

Mother Cow.

 

Part of the moral of this story is that if the Project does not supply

accurate statistics, that leaves it to the public to supply them. My

hope is that it will motivate, not only Mother Cow, but also other

projects to post accurate statistics so that the public does not have to

guess.

 

I'm also leaving an opening for Mother Cow to respond and say, "No we

didn't have that many calves, we had X-number." But every time they

open their mouths the fact just becomes more clear, they did not provide

real protection for the bull calves. It's like Bush criticizing Kerry

for not throwing his actual purple heart medals into the fire -- it just

calls attention that Kerry was a war hero, while Bush did not even show

up for National Guard duty.

Appreciated. I think, according to Sun Tsu's Art of War, in a

confrontation you should always leave an apparent opening to encourage

an opponent to attack you.

 

We'll see how this plays out. Hopefully, the audience (the devotees)

will learn the necessity of reading the fine print on cow protection

programs. Anyway, thanks for looking closely!
