If that is the case say so. Ricin is organic. So are a host of other plant
toxins ranging from those derived from amanitas or oxalic acid from rhubarb.

Okay I have to spell it out for you. Stuff that you can use on your
plants and still sell it as organic produce in a market place.



I protest the perversion of the (American) English language to accommodate
people who don't now what they are talking about.

There is incredible
inconsistency between what is organic (by almost any definition) and
"organic" food production. I would sure appreciate a definition of organic
as used by the "organic food industry."

Can't you use google ?

I don't think that there is one. It
may be possible to list what is organic for every food for every situation.

I cannot imagine that there is anything more organic, by any reasonable
definition, in this world than oleander leaves. They certainly are not good
for you.

Would you spray it on your garden ? No because the local store doesn't
sell it to spray or mulch your garden with it.
There is a lot of stuff nasty in nature. The way you keep on avoiding
the subject and talking about all the "bad" things in nature I wouldn't
dump hot lava, mercury, uranium, anthrax or oil on my garden either.
They are all organic, correct ?


Bill

You seem like a smart guy, why don't you get this ? or are you just
trolling ?
