This is what "Cabin Fever" can do to an otherwise normal person.

I'm thinking it's the carnivores backlash against those who throw paint on fur, or picket meat producers, etc.
Death to Vegetables!

Agreed. I lived in Davenport all my life until two years ago. I now live in Moline.

Nothing in the local papers about this...

Nothing on talk radio yesterday although I missed part of it. Didn't check the tv news. It says Davenport but it must be the Bettendorf Hy-Vee. I think there is only the one in Bettendorf on Middle and Devil's Glen Roads.

If I find out more, I'll update.
