Posted: Aug 23, 08 9:03am

A few vegetarians throughout history...

Pythagorus, Socrates, Hippocrates, Ovid, St. Francic of Asisi, Leonardo da Vinci, William Shakespeare, Benjamin Franklin, Leo Tolstoy, Thomas Edison, George Bernard Shaw, Mohandis Ghandi, Albert Schweitzer, Albert Einstein, John Harvey Kellogg, Issac Bashevis Singer, Isadora Duncan...

Add to the list...

Some pretty weighty (no pun intended) folks in this group... something to Ponder...

Not bad for a Veggie Boi At 50 eh... he he :)

Seems to me that a lot of musicians and other creative folks are vegetarian.

It is rather interesting to see these highly world renowned folks as vegetarians... there are a number of professional atheletes also as I recall... we are in some good company... I just got this name from a young man in a Yoga Chat room on yahoo... I told him I liked it and he just gave it to me... :)
