I've been saying for several years that we have mad cow, but that the government is not doing enough testing. You will remember back to a couple of months ago when a farmer was fined for testing all of his cattle. No, there was nothing else to it; he just wanted to test all of his cattle, and the government came down on him for it. Strange but true; read about that here.
The USDA is *still* not testing a significant percentage of the cattle, though they are testing all 'downer' cattle; at least, that's a start.
