It is obvious from your posting history you don't take the time to read and certainly don't use higher order thinking skills to put facts together. IN this case again, you didn't read the data you so quickly endorsed, did ya? Typical Billy, then you try to cover your tracks with pure unadulterated BS and more links you still didn't read. Google is not your friend Billy. As well, I have to laugh about your use of the word use "citations" as well as the way you attempt to "bait" someone. You have obviously have a lot of practice on the playground. If you would have read and verified the PAN site you would know PAN uses the USDA's PDP test data, a fact they talk about in several places, in fact WOMF specifically references they use the PDP and the PesticideInfo.Org ( which is also themselves). On their PesticideInfo.Org site they state they use the PDP and a few other source references most of which are again FED papers of some agency or other. So once again the database traces back to the PDP as the primary source of all the data used by PAN. Now how bizarre is that ! Because of my training and experiences I have to ask why? I can't come up with anything other than they just another 501 c. 3. looking for money, scare money is pretty easy to get from the uninformed. so here is your "citation" (In my business its source or reference ) , check out the page: Apple Sauce ... snipped... Footnotes 1. Tests for any given food are often conducted in multiple years. In all cases WhatsOnMyFood shows...snipped... 2. All pesticide residue results on this page and elsewhere on the WhatsOnMyFood website were obtained by the United Stated Department of Agriculture (USDA) Pesticide Data Program (PDP) http://www.whatsonmyfood.org/acknowledgements.jsp METHODOLOGY Q: What data is shown here and where did it come from? A: USDA¹s Pesticide Data Program (PDP) cross-referenced with toxicology1 data from EPA and other authoritative listings. http://www.whatsonmyfood.org/methodology.jsp Great, since it's government information, you shouldn't have a problem with it;O) TOXICOLOGY: MAKING SENSE OF PESTICIDES What¹s On My Food? also contains toxicological information for most pesticides tested by USDA, and for many of the pesticide residues (chemicals found on foods that may be different from the actual pesticides used). The toxicological information here is pulled from www.PesticideInfo.org, a comprehensive database that we've developed and maintained for ten years. 3. Punzi, JS, Lamont, M, Haynes, D, Epstein, RL, USDA Pesticide Data Program: Pesticide Residues ...snipped... 4. All toxicological data was either compiled for this site - typically from U.S. EPA reregistration eligibility decisions - or obtained from data compiled for the PesticideInfo website Here, let me further help you do your research, this is the summary of the 2007 report PAN used for their pie chart website presentation: http://www.ams.usda.gov/AMSv1.0/getf...TELPRDC5074338 2007 data, published Dec 2008 Certainly makes me glad that I grow as much as I can. I'll read it when I can but it still doesn't answer the questions below. "PDP analyzed 11,683 samples of fresh and processed food commodities in 2007, excluding groundwater and drinking water. Overall, the percent of residues detected (the number of residues detected divided by the total number of analyses performed for each commodity) was 1.9 percent. Over 99 percent of the samples analyzed did not contain residues above the safety limits (tolerances) established by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and 96.7 percent of the samples analyzed did not contain residues for pesticides that had no tolerance established." The EPA under Bush was a joke and we all know that the USDA isn't to aid consumers, it's meant to aid agriculture (marketers). Seem like we got an Ivory Snow report card Billy, 99%!!!!! so go back to that little pie chart fluff, ground clutter thingies and verify that none exceed the allowable safe limits. Not a one Billy, not a one should exceed the EPA limits, ok maybe the one%. 1% of what? How much does it take before there is a response? A response to the one isolated chemical, or to the stew of chemicals in the food chain and in the environment?? http://www.chemicalbodyburden.org/whatisbb.htm Bottom line.... PAN just downloaded the USDA data base, framed it, added some whirligigs to get your attention and poof ....Its magic,.... please send your dollars to support our important research. Again, understand the data presented. This is presented in a very prejudicial manner, designed to alarm. "OMG this has pesticides on it!" Americans do not seem to understand the nature of statistics, especially about measurements of parts per billion (ppb), for reference 1ppb is equal to 1 minute in 2000 years And dioxin is measured in femtograms (10^-15 g). Which would equal 6 millionths of a sec. I recommended Dr. Bruce Ames, the noted Microbiologist for you to read Yes, and the renowned Frederick Seitz said that "Global Warming" isn't man made. Yada, yada, yada. There are lots of scientists. You have to take a poll and measure their quality. because his research on cancers and carcinogenicity are world renown. But since you don't do much more than goggle and wiki, here is a synopsis link for you to scoff at: http://www.nytimes.com/1994/07/05/sc...e-n-ames-stron g-views-on-origins-of-cancer.html?pagewanted=1 or http://tinyurl.com/nkltzn. I will warn you, like most of your "citations", this reference is a bit old 1994? you might say so. but still very relevant to what he has discovered especially if you can find other writings using his works. Most all his papers are locked up behind password access but you can certainly write to him on his website and ask for copies. I find most Profs want to share, well perhaps except when you slanderously infer them a corporate shrill with your unique style of research. Lots of cow patties out the EXCLUSIVEŠPentagon Pundits: New York Times Reporter David Barstow Wins Pulitzer Prize for Exposing Military¹s Pro-War Propaganda Media Campaign Pundits-double-web In his first national broadcast interview, New York Times reporter David Barstow speaks about his 2009 Pulitzer Prize-winning expose of the Pentagon propaganda campaign to recruit more than seventy-five retired military officers to appear on TV outlets as military analysts ahead of and during the Iraq war. This week, the Pentagon inspector general¹s office admitted its exoneration of the program was flawed and withdrew it. http://www.democracynow.org/2009/5/8...imes_reporter_ david Climate Expert Says NASA Tried to Silence Him http://www.nytimes.com/2006/01/29/sc...29climate.html Lots of people are playing fast and loose with critical facts. I just reads them the way that I sees them. Just remember most here do understand and endorse being green, It is just the fringe lunacy gets a bit much with you. Certainly the co-mingling of extraneous " citations" doesn't help your cause. The governors of West Virginia always call me an environmental extremist. You¹ve got to be an extremist in order to achieve things. You¹ve got to be ready to make enemies in order to accomplish something. And it¹s absolutely necessary that the people here today continue to demonstrate against this highly destructive practice. - REP. KEN HECHLER (94 years old) "The only congressman who marched with Martin Luther King in Selma, Alabama, was this hillbilly from West Virginia . ." http://www.democracynow.org/2009/5/29/coal Good luck in your quest for the holy grail.

http://potency.berkeley.edu/MOE.html Bruce is going on 81 and has done good work. That said science has a difficult time adding up total exposure and the possible impact. I'd hazard a guess that our immune systems are strengthened and weakened by impact of all our sensual imputes. Best practice is to try to do well be well with what we think we know. Gardening and invoking mother nature I believe is a good thing. Belief system raises it complexities. Love and gratefulness for sustenance primary sometimes expressed as saying grace in one way or another. Looking at the fancy Ames graph I noticed no mention of Alpha or Beta Naphthalene which caused a hot spot for bladder cancer in Pennsville NJ. Rural area with A Dupont Plant providing employment not far from here it smelled like death and it was the most frequent sample turned over to the next shift. . Exposure to harmful or helpful mediums seem to be secretive. Vit D, Vit K and Resveratrol along with family interaction seems good. Allopathy good for burns and accidents only. Yea that¹s me. YMMV. Fresh home nibbling has to be superior but I may be wrong. Energy more direct in a way from the earth and sun. Bill whose sister is a MD and Husband a Virologist.

Oh wait, so sorry, I did......Godwin's Law invoked. Charlie So YOU can make sense out of his rambling BS and the stupid wiki links or you just a fan of his? Regardless that was rich Charlie , I will try to work that one in the next time. I'm sure there will be more BS coming out of eco fringe element . It almost is like an OCD. |

I'm sorry, I said this thread when I meant to indicate the other group and that thread in which you and bob and kate and mic were holding forth. You can attribute this oversight, or mistake, to lack of medication and ability to clarify thoughts, if you choose, Gunny. Charlie Charlie, I aint no Gunny. I 'm a Gunner, a Warrant Officer. I was an E7 Promotable (9 years) when I was appointed, then commissioned RA 6 months later. Army also, but I was adopted because of so many joint assignments. BTW, Dr of sorts... no! but I do understand more than a bit of MH issues. FWIW I am a licensed counselor in WA State, well for the next month anyway, getting too expensive to stay current when you are doing free work. I have been the Court Appointed Guardian for 3 MH persons so far and as an advocate working issues for a few others over the years, I have been an advocate working for the last year an a half on a host of issues ranging from the IRS, INS, The State of CA, the Federal Government, Medicare/Medicaid and 3 Insurance companies for this one person. as well as dealing with 5 doctors. She is Bi Polar since teens. last year she went down that road and I didn't think she was coming back this time. Was talking to the IRS for a couple of hours just Yesterday AM on her issues. I am not the Dr guy one needs, I 'm the guy that plowed through the bureaucracy and get stuff done my friend so they can get to the Dr guy. As you can perhaps sense, I don't win a lot of brownie points for style, but I get a job done in record time. So you may feel that I am insensitive,.... I do not..., may not be considered PC, but a far cry from being insensitive to the plight of other. I do apologize to you if you are afflicted and felt dissed. That you came to his defense, good on you so I will tell you first, I am going to break up with him, he is getting way too needy and honestly, I think he is seeing another NG. Who is Kaiser? mein Fuhrer? Are you talking growing Meds? as in Humbolt Co, or the other holistic ayurveda thing such as for Diabetes? Regardless, Use caution with the Shaman craft. |

As far as defending Billy, and Bill, he/they are capable of that themselves and need not my defense. What I will do is stand shoulder to shoulder with them and throw rock. No one is on Bill's ass, he did help Martin, kinda. This is all Billy's doing. Like I said, good you show your Bud some support and I would like to believe you really standup for the underdog. I see no one did for Martin ( florabloom) Standing silent it not standing up, Charlie and you know that. Your man has a CS Bully personality. Billy ain't figured this one out as yet. This is childish play, you bet, but has he answered the question, Of course not, because he cannot. it is a lie and he is weasling on it. Yet this is all been for Nilly Billy's chicken shit attack he pulled on Florabloom. He lied and then attacked an innocent. You stand shoulder to shoulder to that? Now he is caught up in it. He coulda got away with his pathological lying, hell, a few of his "citations" he googles are worth reading and he has got some folks believing his BS or too scared to say otherwise, don't know which one, don't care but to launch into a diatribe such as he did and attack a FNG for asking a question? naaa. No man gets to do that without some consequence. Florabloom played nice and he didn't get ANY support from this group. You can't give a pass on this one Charlie and mean what you said about being a advocate. Stand in,..... stand down......... all the same to me Charlie. |
