i started a community for connecticut vegans & vegetarians. if you're from the area, join up. i figured it's a good place to post about restaurants, stores, and various activities.
http://community.livejournal.com/ct_vegans/ the first post pertains to a bill up for consideration THIS upcoming monday. the bill, if passed, would allow factory farm egg-laying hens to have enough room to spread their wings. if you can attend the hearing, i HIGHLY encourage you to do so. the more public interest in this bill, the more of a chance it'll have. click the above link to read more about it.
