You've been watching too much PBS and those ADM commercials.

Mark, ADM=Archer Daniel Midland? The agriculture company which made the news around 1998-1999? I've never seeen their commercials but why would they advertize on public TV when they only export and dont sell to the American consumer?
BTW, PBS sometimes has good educational programs, for instance some hint that the universe is bigger than humans and whichever space they occupy.

You don't have to watch KUED very long to see an ADM comercial (ADM... Supermarket to the world). They must sponsor some aspect of PBS either nationally or locally on KUED. Oh and btw, they do market big time to US consumers. If you want corn oil, oats, etc, in quanity it's very likely you'll be dealing with ADM. We buy railcars of ethanol from them...

For some reason I thought ADM was 100% exporter, thanks for clearing that up Jon.

I believe that to be true. Now, what I am about to write may sound odd, but I believe that we actually participated in some small way in creating this world on which we live and that there are an unknown number of other worlds created by the beings that live on them. Further, if we do our best to live right by being honest, helping each other and try to make this world a better place, we will be granted the opportunity to live here forever in a glorified, higher spiritual condition someday. This may sound crazy, but I'm pretty sure it's true.
