ARTICLE: Millions Of Chickens Fed Tainted Pet Food: Risk to Consumers Minimal, FDA Says, By Rick Weiss, Washington Post, May 2, 2007; Page A01
This whole pet food crisis is proving to be quite the interesting System Perturbation--and not necessarily in a minor key.
Pet food industry gets pinged.
China gets pinged.
Poultry industry gets pinged.
Who's next?
New rules clearly in the making. Know your biological/supply chain clearly in the offing.
And the bar just gets raised higher.
Obvious observation?
It's the screw-ups that generate the new rules far more often than the terrorists.
A bogus argument you often hear: we have to be right all the time, but the terrorist only needs to be right once.
Truth is, we need to be right all the time because, if we're not, too much crap like this crisis results. By and large, the terrorists are lost in the noise.
