Well, I don't need to flatter myself or hear kudos from
others, I *know* that I happen to have decent willpower.
I also realize that others may not have it, for
whatever reasons.

I am simply speculating that the original decision
to go veg*n, in both cases, may have been equally
moral. Lack of willpower and strength doesn't reduce
the goodwill displayed by the original decision.
