Read what I wrote. I was not commenting on Toby's post, which I thought
was very useful. It was the reply by Greg E. Read what Greg E wrote and
see if you don't feel, as I do, that perpetuation a thread on that topic
would be an utter waste of our _valuable_ time. 

Now of you'd rather toil and boil on about pro/anti pesticide use on into
the sunset let me know, I'll take a poll of list subscribers. 
I for one would much rather LEARN ABOUT PC and continue the great
discussions we've seen here lately. I feel sure that many of the valued
contributors to this list would too.

I'm "keepin me gob shut" (tnx Peter Wibberly) about that little trinket
of crass hypocrisy, Ute. :-)  <----- Note Smiley. Dan's off on a teaching
junket so I guess he's powerless to respond anyway.
