The dialogue about Dr. Temple Grandin’s negative impact to the United States consumer continues as Frank Santana from Winterset, IA challenges me about my High Plains Journal column. Here is what he wrote to me Critizing Temple Grandin in your April 23 rd colum as it appears in the “Midwest Ag Journal” is foolish, short sighted, and counterproductive to the interests of the “Livestock” industry.
