Problem? Linda Rhodes,
Upland, Calif.
For those readers who missed
that column, toxoplasmosis is a
parasitic infection which humans
can acquire in one of two ways
through direct contact with
infected cat feces or through the
eating of raw or undercooked
meat and meat products or
unwashed vegetables
L.E. Carmichael, a
veterinarian and professor of
Oology at the New York State
liege of Veterinary Medicine,
made the following comment in
response to your inquiry. "Some
physicians who are familiar with
the problem would have all cat
feces buried deeply, or would
discourage cats in households
with small children.
"This is an overreaction, but
it is true that the feces of cats
can carry toxoplasma organisms.
'The cat is a very clean animal,
and for this reason probably
does not pose a significant threat
with respect to carrying the
organism on its fur or paws."
However, l have been in
homes where I've witnessed cats
scratching furiously in a box in
the corner of the kitchen, then

UNCLEANED MACKEREL,
I was shacked to find that
mackerel is sold neither scaled
nor cleaned by our local
Safeway store. Although it
smells horrible and looks worse,
the store manager assures me
that mackerel roust be sold
uncleaned because it is so
fragile. True or false? Wendy
Eckley, Corcoran. Calif.
In the "Encyclopedia of Fish
Cookery" by A.J. McClane, the
author states, "The thing to
know about any mackerel is that
they must be iced within six
hours, and preferably
immediately. It's during this
time when the fish are exposed
to ambient temperatures that the
fresh mackerel flavor is lost.
• This is not a question of
spoilage, although any delay in
icing accelerates changes in
quality in subsequent storage,
but a matter of the fish
becoming tasteless."
Debra Lambert, a public
relations representative with
Safeway Stores, states •that the
merchandising manager informed
her that mackerel is indeed very
perishable and breaks down
easily. if the scales were
removed, it would cause the fish
to be mushy, arid as it spoils
quickly, one should handle the

The Samurai have returned to
London! No, they are not the
Samurai of Ancient Japan.
"They're the 1986 Suzuki
Samurai; the economy
passenger vehicle with the
sporty dimension," according
to Reid Simpson of Highbury
Suzuki.
He said that Suzuki Samuria.
offers peppy acceleration and
n
maeuverability, along with
an affordable price and fuel

kilometres, or 30 miles per
gallon. All models feature a
four cylinder, 1.3 litre engine
and five speed transmission.
They are priced from
$8,763.00.

have considered four-wheel
drive vehicles only for recrea-
tional, off-road driving. `•But
now, more and more people
are recognizing the benefits of
this kind of vehicle for many
differenct kinds of driving.
The Samuria is just as
• suitable for getting around
downtown as it is for making
its way through the bush on a
hunting trip," he said.
"We •are proud to be
associatedwith the Suzuki
Motor Co. They are one of the
world's biggest automakers.
The Samurai will continue to
enhance Suzuki's reputation
"as a reliable, lower. -priced
passenger vehicle with a
rugged sporty flair," said Mr.
Simpson.
