New Spring Contest -- Fun, Food & Fashion, no Foolin'

[Guest guest]

Hi everyone,

 

Happy April Fool's Day! Today is the launch of our Spring contest (open to

SFBAVeg members only). It is a contest to test your wits or research

skills! Every week, for the next three months, we will announce a Question

of the Week. So put on your fool's cap and get ready to play!

 

You can participate in the contest in two ways:

1) Entering the contest

2) Submitting a Question for the contest

 

Entering the Contest:

Send your answer to: event. Please put " contest " in the

subject line. Do NOT send answers to the SFBAVeg list. If this happens,

the question will be voided and no entries given for that week. Limit one

entry per person per week. You must send your answer from the e-mail

account that is d to the list. Entries from non-members will be

discarded. All correct answers will receive one entry into the drawing.

 

Questions will be announced on Monday. Submissions for the weekly contest

must be received by Sunday, 8 p.m. PST. When the next question is

announced, the answer to the previous question will also be posted to the

list.

 

Submitting a Question for the Contest:

If you submit a question for the contest that we use, you will receive an

automatic entry into the drawing. Questions can be quotations, facts, etc.

Only caveat is that they must be related to vegetarianism or animal rights,

contemporary or historical. You must document a source for the answer.

Send your question with the answer/reference to: tammy

 

Prizes:

All who answer the Question of the Week correctly will be entered into a

drawing for the prizes.

Grand Prize: An extraordinary delicious and delightful book, " The

Millennium Cookbook " . This brand new cookbook was kindly donated by Lori P.

3 Runner-Up prizes: v-pins, wear your veg*n spirit on the outside! Donated

Drawing held July 1st or thereabouts. Minimum 50 entries required or

contest may be extended at discretion of SFBAVeg Administrators. Contest

winners are responsible for any/all costs involved in claiming the prize,

like postage for mailing it to you. Selected winner(s) must be a current

member of SFBAVeg or alternate winner(s) will be selected.

 

Good luck and have fun!

Question #1: This is a " whodunit " . Name the author and the book.

 

" Isn't man an amazing animal? He kills wildlife - birds, kangaroos, deer,

all kinds of cats, coyotes, beavers, groundhogs, mice, foxes and dingoes -

by the million in order to protect his domestic animals and their feed. Then

he kills domestic animals by the billion and eats them. This in turn kills

man by the million, because eating all those animals leads to degenerative -

and fatal- health conditions like heart disease, kidney disease, and cancer.

So then man tortures and kills millions more animals to look for cures for

these diseases. Elsewhere, millions of other human beings are being killed

by hunger and malnutrition because food they could eat is being used to

fatten domestic animals. Meanwhile, some people are dying of sad laughter at

the absurdity of man, who kills so easily and so violently, and once a year,

sends out cards praying for " Peace on Earth. "

 

 

 

" Perform a death-defying act.... Go Vegan! "
