As I said in another post, I do open up burgers to see what is in them, I
sometimes remove excess onion and tomato. If I was subject to serious
allergic reactions from something that is commonly in burgers I would most
certainly make a point of checking them.

It is true that we have only the media report and I know that most
reporters can screw up the Lord's prayer trying to make an article look
more interesting. The report did say that the room was dark because they
were watching a movie. In order to get as movie going in a VCR or DVD they
would have to use the remote controls, and if there was enough light to
find the remotes and to find the right buttons then there was enough light
to see if there was cheese on the burger.

Actually, I have listen to Rush a few times, just enough to realize what an
idiot he is.
