Thanks very much for distributing your cow canon.
I got a copy via a friend who has access to netnews, which I do not.
I ran off a copy to send to some friends who recently moved away,
to a suburb of Detroit, and are not on the net at all.
I thought they should have some cows appropriate to their locale.
Herewith are my apocryphal cows:
