.. hmmm. I put that in because there are a number of people who do
similar things who clearly think (excuse the pun) they are the cat's
whiskers, and very noble, etc., etc.  So I put myself down a little
partly to remind myself that I am not so holy, and to defend the cause
of animal welfare against those who oppose it by attacking its
supporters - for there is no way they can attack the work they do, nor
the compassion and genuine "brotherly" feeling they have towards the
animals without themselves appearing diminished.
