Billy, I heard you graduated the 8th Grade twice so you should understand
this; I don't want to be your book reviewer and I don't want anecdotal
hyper BS obfuscating what you stated . I want to see some valid scientific
papers/research showing studies/ tests on how your statement mineral salts
kill micro organism is true. I want to see the start, the test methods and
the results which should be replicable. I don't want post hoc BS or the
argument from authority. If one of your "citations" knows it to be true,
then there is a study/paper on it, otherwise it is an unsubstantiated
opinion.

Billy again pussyfoots, counters with even more BS:

Couldn't figure it out, or getting lazy? If two authorities aren't
enough, you won't open your eyes to see what you don't want to see.
You don't like my authorities? What have you got?
Never mind. We have more important things to do,.........

WE? Are you in one of your Sybil personality modes again?

than give you a chance
to see your name in lights.

Once again your definition of an authority is BS ( scream louder, I'm on the
Internet) . Unless you can give a valid reference to a scientific paper or
some such research that one of your "citations" has actually accomplished or
perhaps has knowledge of .....you make a false statement. It is certainly
not out of the character for you to do that, you show a history of making up
facts as you preach. When that doesn't seem to work, you attack ( which is
more of your wussy Internet persona).

I am sure your first reference was a very good lawyer ( soil food web??? do
check out where Dr. Ingram is working these days) and I'm sure some the
second might be some fine master gardener. I have not read the latter
because as I said, I am not going to be your book reviewer. You
procrastinate again, son. We both know the reason. Regardless, you still
cannot back up your lie(s) and you have been played into saying it so much,
you own this one. Mineral salts do not kill micro organisms any more than
manures do. You cannot justify this lie, no matter how hard you try nor
how much you squawk.

Go back to your pretend Google book of the month review club and play up to
your fan base. Seems they buy into your BS.

You can fool some of the people all of the time and all of the people some
of the time ... then there is Billy... who just hasn't got a clue.

I've given you two authorities for my position, gunnie. One , Jeff
Lowenfel, Harvard University, geology; Northeastern University, law, and
two, Dr. Joseph Schwarcz, the new chair of the ACCN Editorial Board, the
director of McGill University's Office for Science and Society, a
professor in the chemistry department and teaches nutrition and
alternative medicine in McGill's Medical School.

Where is your degree from gunnie? Get help, you're sick.

You are quite fickle, billy, and very comedic. The first source doesn't
give any proof that
of mineral salts kill micro organisms and his analogy of table salt and
slugs is
quite laughable. Course your source has no commerical interests does he?

As to the second source, isn't Dr Joe the one you and "your group" went
to great lengths to denounce, calling him a Monsanto shrill? Why the sudden
turn-about?
Short term memory loss? Do you think he supports your use of scary numbers
and false statistic fringe think?

Actually I find he is very anchored and mainstream, he certainly
dismissed "your group" fringe think and you are still cherry picking his
comments. That whole debacle was quite entertaining.

So enough of your silly games billy. As both of us know, mineral
fertilizers do not kill SOMs when properly applied. You haven't found a
peer reviewed
scientific paper to prove this and you won't. I'm stepping out of this
thread and letting you get back to your sermons. This one quite exhausted
its purpose.

But do yourself a favor, when a man is asking advice to help his
family, don't climb his ass, espcially with BS lies.
