I lived in a farming area much of my life. After seeing the tons and
tons of chemicals farmers used on their crops every year, I fail to
understand the fuss about home owners using a few pounds of
fertilizers and weed killers on their lawns two or three times a year.


Lucky for you that you woren't the poor sot picking the crops.

I did my share of the work on my grandfathers farm when I was a young boy,
including helping to harvest the crops.

I have recently retired and my health is still excellent. My grandfather was
approaching 100 when he died and he was still planting and harvesting crops
the day he passes away. So, what's your point, if you have one?

I guess you eat only organically grown food and have a bicycle to ride on so
you don't pollute the air.
