Are you getting pushback yet from the dairy industry? Here in Canada it's like a cartel, where large companies and milk quotas prevent newcomers. It would be interesting if you could actually sell your cheese cheaper here than regular products since prices would not be artificially inflated.

Margarine had a very hard time entering the market here due to dairy industry pushback. They wouldn't allow margarine to have the same color as butter.

Not HK...

I did about the same and considered myself faster than most people on the trail. Congrats for finishing!

Thanks for doing this AMA! I was wondering if you could answer a question regarding a plot in one of Neil Stevenston's books, Seven Eves: In the book, the moon breaks up where the pieces collide with each other until lots of small moon pieces come raining down on Earth. This "hard rain" heats up the planet to the point where all life goes extinct. Apart from the absurdity of the moon breaking apart, how accurate is the danger of these small pieces portrayed in the book to the fate of the planet? Thanks again!
