Pesticides, politics and oral favors
A little something for the kiddies, like trader4, who have their heads in
the sand, or elsewhere..... EPA Won't Restrict Toxic Herbicide Atrazine, Despite Health Threat White House documents obtained by NRDC reveal that industry influenced the decision. The EPA has decided not to limit one of the nation's most widely used weed-killers, a chemical that, according to several recent studies, threatens human health and the environment. The October 2003 decision -- which the EPA was required to make under a court-approved consent decree reached with NRDC in 2001 -- will allow Syngenta, the main manufacturer of atrazine, and other companies to continue to sell the chemical in the United States with no significant restrictions. The rest: http://www.nrdc.org/health/pesticides/natrazine.asp |

Oh, wow imagine that! The govt allowed industry to "play a role in
shaping the EPA decision." I would have thought they would just take input from guys like Doug Kanter, after all, he's quite an expert. He's a real renaissance man who can tell everyone how to have a beautiful lawn without any chemicals, calls lawn care professionals thugs, and even has time to advocate poisoning neighbors pets and making bigotted remarks about the handicapped. Why should anyone doubt Doug? LOL |

Good, I"m glad the government has allowed the continued use of atrazine.
Big Brother has taken too many pesticides off the shelf that were effective and left us with pesticides which are ineffective except with multiple applications instead of one or two around a home site. I wish they'd bring back Dursban; it was great for treating large areas of unwanted bugs with a single application.. |

"Perhaps you could display a little more than ignorance of Usenet and
check some of the postings from Kanter. Just an ounce of skill and you'd find he's being spoofed...PUTZ! " Now that Kanter has posted that he did in fact make the post, so who's the ignorant one now, Putz? |

Let's see who's thinking clearly today. Bless the assembled masses with your conclusions from the following: If a chemical company says they used rats to test for safety, they consider the results valid. If someone else uses rats, and finds the exact same chemical to be unsafe, the chemical company says "That's not valid because rats respond differently than humans". This has been going on for 4 decades. What do you make of this riddle? |

You accused him of making certain other posts, all of which were faked by a troll. Janet, The poor child can't tell the difference between one of my real posts (like the one that started this thread), and the obnoxious series of racist messages that HE floated under my name several weeks ago. I'd imagine he must've had a devil of a time in school with those questions which asked "Which thing does not belong with the others, and showed pictures of a bicycle, a car, a train and a pencil. |

"I haven't read anything like an admission...care to repost with the
complete header? " Why don't you learn to use the internet like the rest of us, instead of expecting someone else to do it for you. Ever hear of Google? It's not hard to find if you look instead of shooting off your mouth. |
