We had a box. Dunno how well insulated it was, though.

No, we didn't have a box. Where I grew up milk was usually left to the side of the doorstep.

I grew up on skim milk. It's all that my father would let us drink.... except when he tried to get us to drink some powdered crap

I don't mind the powdered crap, but it does have a distinctive taste.

My kids grew up on skim; they think any other kind of milk is gross. Well, except for chocolate milk, of course.

I grew up with whole milk. hate the skim stuff. chocolate milk is proof of God's love for us.

We had a milkbox by the back door. And the milk we got was unpasteurized and unhomogenized, so there was a nice big layer of cream at the top.

Where do they get off killing five thousand of our ONLY wild horses left in the entire country? And for what purpose?

Just an FYI - Wild Horses are not indigenous to the US. They were brought here by the Spanish and found a a foothold.

Yes, and they are not indigenous to Europe either - I believe they were brought to the rest of the world from central Asia (albeit much earlier than their introduction to the Americas).
