First Meeting: Fusia Asian Cuisine

Try this pan-Asian restaurant. If you're game for sushi, they have giant deluxe combos for about $20. For the less adventurous or more budget-conscious, there are Chinese, Thai, Vietnamese, and Malaysian noodle dishes running around $10. And there's always teriyaki. Menu: http://fusia56.com... Note the menu at the restaurant has many items not listed on the online menu.

Note: Thought the address is officially on Lexington, the entrance to the restaurant is on 56th St, about 60 feet east of Lex. Also, there is a $15 minimum to use credit card.

Any insights into how the Sudanese and Chinese governments justify their actions?

They are learning to grow meat artificially in vats without killing animals: http://tinyurl.com/4f...
I predict that in 100 years people will eat artificial food that is healthier, tastes better, and is cheaper than natural food.
-- People in that day will look upon us as savages because we kill animals for food, much as we look upon someone who owned slaves 150 years ago.
-- Is this good news for cows, since they'll be practically extinct except for a few living in zoos?

Snopes is a website that investigates urban legends and either confirms them or exposes them as frauds. I remember this one that people told me in college, the super carburetor that would solve our energy problems that was being suppressed by a conspiracy of evil corporations: http://tinyurl.com/5z...
