There  is nothing  official about  this list.   It  originated from  a
desire  by some new  readers of  rec.foods.veg to know  who  the  main
contributors to the newsgroup were, where they stood on issues related
to vegetarianism, and any other background they cared to offer.

  Follows mainly a lacto-vegetarian diet, using low-fat milk and cheese

  diet principaly for health reasons,  but also out of ethical concerns
