And that whole knowing even a tiny thing about what you're talking about is so overrated. Why on earth would any pesticide company bother to fund a campaign in favor of DDT? They wouldn't make money off of DDT. It's an old chemical. Banning DDT was a small, but non-trivial, windfall for the pesticide companies. DDT is currently being manufactured by a single factory in India and it's _still_ a dirt-cheap chemical. I wouldn't terribly want to drink DDT. But I'd probably be safer drinking it than I would the other chemicals that we use for insect suppression _instead_ of DDT. But God forbid you should actually conduct an intelligent risk analysis instead of just parroting the leftist line. Out of curiousity, Gary, is there _any_ issue where I couldn't predict your position with flawless accuracy by moving about three standard deviations to the left of the American mainstream? Even one?
