A&M also did research to see if fish were right and left "handed" a few years back too

Not surprising from a school that considers cattle farming a science.

Well, if you knew anything about raising quality beef, you would know that there IS a science to doing it in today's market.
Can't believe I said that as anti-A&M as I have been forever.....

Well A&M has 50,000 people doing various things.
There's a lot more going on down here than animal science.
However our animal science folk do get tons of research dollars.

I wonder how much of that budget goes into engineering a sheep that likes to be fucked by toothless farmers?

Whatever...
A&M perfected that in the 60's while most of America was whining about aliens.

You've obviously never seen a modern cattle ranch.

Yeah Adex, that's why I had to throw in the small text. In regards to A&M, the Animal Science program is great. Hell, I almost went to A&M at Corpus Christi for the Oceanography program as well.
