The amount of food your family alone > wastes is probably enough to feed a small African country! My family is not quite so large as you seem to think, nor do we waste entire trainloads of food. Or perhaps you know of some very small African countries. No doubt you were referring to "small African families." In that case you are quite probably correct. If you want to come scrape out my garbage can and mail the proceeds to them, you are quite welcome. But that won't solve the problem of hunger in the undeveloped countries. I maintain that nothing will, except helping them to become self-sufficient in food. Scott Renner {ihnp4,pur-ee}!uiucdcs!renner
