You can't research these products. There is no data. In order to test things
like this, you need hundreds or thousands of people to volunteer to be dosed
with chemicals. Now, think hard. If Monsanto or Dow somehow came up with
that many volunteers, what kinds of people do you think they might be, and
how would that affect the research?




A reference that one of you (Bill, I think) gave yesterday said,
"Glyphosate is acutely toxic to humans. Ingesting about 3/4 of a cup can
be lethal."

Were they just pulling numbers out of their ass? (actually, I think they
were, but I'm not the one who posted it)

That's why I like old fashion chemicals that have been around for 40
years rather than the brand new exotic pesticides that Bayer makes.
There's enough anecdotal data to actually mean something. ;-)
