I'm guessing here that you're asking about the different kinds of vegetarians
but I'm not sure. If that is it, then there are a few basic types of
vegetarians: lacto-ovo vegetarians eat dairy products and eggs along with
vegetarian foods, lacto vegetarians would use dairy products but no eggs, ovo
vegetarian would use eggs but no dairy. Complete vegetarians eat no animal
products at all. To really be considered a vegan, from what I'm reading, you
need to take it a step further and as much as possible rid yourself of animal
products in everything (meaning no leather, no wool, no honey...plus there
are hidden animal ingredients in many many foods). It's basically impossible
to be 100% vegan since if you drive a car your tires contain animal products,
if you go to the movies, the film contains gelatin, and so on. Vegans try to
minimize the exploitation of animals as much as they possibly can, realizing
that it's not a perfect world. I still have my leather shoes and occasionally
use honey so I guess I'm not a true vegan but I'm getting there :)

If that wasn't what you were asking, I'm sorry. I just couldn't tell exactly
what you meant by vegan terminology. I'll be glad to try again if you ask!

people who are on digest will reply to subjects as their digest # xxx from
time to time. This is the only thing they have to refer to unless replying
to a specific subjuct line. This must be what you're refering to.
