Parchment and vellum are made from animal skin. As early as 2450 BC, skins of animals were in use in Egypt as writing material. Leather was the first to be used and many of the Dead Sea Scrolls were written on it. It was later refined into parchment, of which vellum is a finer quality. \n\nThe manufacture of vellum and parchment is a very skilled process. Various animal skins are used, mainly calf, sheep and goat. The skins are washed and stripped of hair or wool, then stretched on a frame to be scraped to remove further traces of flesh or hair. The scraping must be careful enough to remove all unwanted material without piercing or tearing the skin. The skins are then whitened with chalk and smoothed with pumice before being cut into sheets. \n\nMost early manuscripts in Egypt were written on papyrus, which was made from reeds which grew almost exclusively along the Nile. According to tradition, Ptolemy V of Egypt was a great collector of books and was anxious not to be outdone in his collection by Eumenes II of Pergamum (then a Greek city, now modern Bergama, in Turkey). He therefore banned the export of papyrus, which forced Pergamum into the manufacture of parchment. (The word is derived from Latin and Greek words for 'made in Pergamum'). \n\nParchment in fact offered advantages over papyrus. Bigger sheets could be made, it was flexible and could be written on both sides. It could also be stitched and this meant that a book of parchment sheets could be made, whereas papyrus could only be collected in loose sheets. \n\nParchment made from the more delicate skins of new or stillborn calf or kid came to be called vellum. The vellum of most early manuscripts, up to the 6th century AD, is of good quality. After this, as demand increased, a great amount of inferior material came on the market, but by the 12th century, when large numbers of manuscripts were being produced in western Europe, a soft, pliant vellum was in vogue. In Constantinople, a luxury version was produced at an early date by dyeing the material a rich purple and lettering it in silver and gold, a practice condemned as a useless luxury in a well-known passage of St. Jerome. The purple dye was subsequently abandoned, but the practice of "illuminating" parchment manuscripts in gold, silver, and other tints flourished in Europe throughout the Middle Ages. \n\nThe cost of papyrus and parchment was too high for everyday use for record making. Wax tablets were used instead for routine work and note taking. Because ancient writing materials were expensive, they were often reused. Papyrus presented difficulties, for ink soon bonded itself firmly into the surface, but parchment could be readily reused, because it is tougher and can be washed or scraped clean. Many medieval monks, when short of writing materials, took ancient books to pieces, cleaned off the leaves and reused them. \n\nVellum is still made today for calligraphy, the best quality being Manuscript vellum. Goatskin can also be used, while parchment made from sheepskin is less useful, due to its grease content.

I think this is highly doubtful.  You don't need to eat animal flesh in order to maintain your body.  You can not only can derive complex carbohydrates and fiber from plant foods, but plenty of protein and fat.\n\nIf what your friend says is true, I would imagine his problem is unrelated to his diet.

Sadly, many animal rights groups would lead you to believe that animals are exposed to anything and everything. In reality, any compound intended to be used on human skin is extensively tested in labs prior to being tested on animals. They check everything from basic corrosive properties to chemical interactions. Scientists are not out there spraying concetrated Nitric Acid into rabbits eyes out of curiosity.\n\nThe actual animal testing is done only if they already have a resonable expectation that it would be OK. Further more, once animal testing is done, they also do human testing as a final verification prior to gaining approval for public use.

No, human physiology does not work that way. Planned Parenthood or calling your local hospital will tell you.

Yes.  Don't let anyone tell you differently.  You have to do it all.  You have to develope a hard skin.

Yes it is.\nNitrile and vinyl are also viable alternatives depending on the application.
