You don't actually have to be a guinea pig.

Awwww jeeze.

You guys sure have short memories down there in Canada's seedy underbelly.  The same geniuses who approved the whole DDT is good for me-e-e fiasco:


Yes, the very same good folks who engineered this:


and this:




Please.  Wake up. Don't buy the party line this time around. 
Don't be a guinea pig.  Don't eat the Frankenfish.

    Killing Salt Chemicals...wonder what they're called today?
    Interestingly, DDT is used in South Africa under supposedly tightly controlled conditions to eliminate mosquitos where there is a high malaria risk. It's a "kicking the can down the road" approach, the kids won't die of malaria.....

    Thank you! It undoubtedly will...

    Malaria is terrifying, it's true, as are the effects of DDT. You can see what happens to boys when they are exposed to endocrine disruptors and hormone mimics if you search for "The Disappearing Male" on youtube. It's a CBC Doc Zone production.

    I don't know what the answer is when it comes to malaria, but I do know that unleashing GMO salmon on the planet is going to cause a lot more problems than it solves.

    Not much in the way of bikes on this one, but I felt it had to be said. Time for a ride, though, just to uplift my spirits... :)
