But that's not what we're talking about, is it? I, too, have had the same thing happen. After three months as a semi-vegetarian (still eating fish), I went home to visit Mom. She served hamburgers. To make a long story short (and tasteful), let's just say my digestive tract did not appreciate it. I have, of course, become a full-fledged vegetarian (mostly vegan, in fact) since then. The official line on this is that different people have diff- erent reactions to eating meat after a long time away from it, but I've never encountered anybody who didn't suffer from it. <_Jym_> :::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: ::::' :: `:::: Jym Dyer ::::' :: `:::: ::' :: `:: Dracut, Massachusetts ::' :: `:: :: :: :::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: :: :: :: .::::. :: DYER%VAXUUM.DEC@DECWRL.ARPA :: .::::. :: ::..:' :: `:..:: {allegra|decvax|ihnp4|ucbvax} ::..:' :: `:..:: ::::. :: .:::: decwrl!dec-rhea!dec-vaxuum!dyer ::::' :: `:::: ::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
