Hi Sue
Thanks for letting me know about Loma Linda. Guess it is more than one researcher
<BG>. Do you
know if they have a 'homepage?' They might have some of their research on the web. I
wonder if
their doctors have written on the causes of conjoined twins. The hospital must be
like Mayo here
in MN., but with a different focus. Here, I think infants are sent to the U of M
hospital. They
have a really good neonatal unit I am told.
The spraying of Malathion doesn't sound very safe to me after you posted all the
precautions they
want people to take. DDT was once thought to be great, wasn't it. Are they still
spraying
Malathion there? Would be interesting to look up stats (oh horrors) on incidences,
prevalence and
causes of death in the areas they spray this stuff in and compare them. Oh, I bet
government
agencies etc. hate having an informed public <VVBG>.
Proof readers only look for mistakes in grammar, spelling and punctuation, I think.
They don't
read for content. I bet they couldn't even tell you what an article was about.
Gripes, our paper
didn't even see the tie between the two school teachers being accused of the same
crime at
approximately the same time. I would have thought that MN newspapers would have
followed this
more closely--no such thing occurred.
