This is an important subject to me because people seem to 
disregard the things some animals had gone through to make the
shoes, or hat, or etc.- I believe humans would be better animals
if we'd just respect our fellow beings. When one stops eating 
meat,for example,but keeps the leather shoes bought before hand,
one may wear those shoes with a high level of pride
for the animal that was killed for them (shoes) and pride for
oneself.  -Why would one want to forget the truth by throwing it
out? just wanted to state the obvious...
