Just watched a PBS show hosted by the lady who's put out a book called
"Spoonful of ginger" or somesuch.
Once again I was taken (angered !) by the fact that neither she nor any of
her ilk
( Andrew Weil et.al) make any distinction between Organic and industrial
food.
Do you reckon that's because :
A) they just don't know.
B) the findings of Rachel Carson et.al have been discredited/disproved.
C)They are scared of the big chem-boyz' abilities to sue their asses into
submission ?
D) they, as scientists, don't pronounce themselves until direct causality
has been absolutely proven ?
