Yes, vegetarians do have sharp teeth

Re: "You're wrong and rude, Mr Bahrt", Letters, October 29.
For years Victor Meldrew has been abusing the websites, personally attacking Eric Bahrt. On one website he even once called Eric an “idiot”. Yet Victor becomes the biggest cry-baby in the world when “rude” Eric hits back.
More importantly it is an insult to the readers for Victor to think they are so poorly informed that they don’t know about the monumental achievements that Dr Dean Ornish has had in treating heart disease and prostate cancer with a vegetarian diet. By all means, the readers should Google “Dean Ornish reverses heart disease”. Don’t take Eric’s word for it, see for yourselves.
But it seems to me that Eric’s nasty critics think vegetarians are love-everybody flower children who, when they get kicked in the teeth, respond by kissing their attackers on the cheek and giving them a flower!
When Eric gets hit below the belt he hits back hard. And it’s a blatant double standard to expect him to do otherwise.
