Personally I am fortunate in having found a safe haven to escape from these fiendish modern practices, although it was already too late for my health. So many don't even know what is ailing them and why. Horrendous mistakes we are making, in spite of the likes of Rachel Carson and Adele Davis, who both warned so eloquently so many years ago now.<br />This is a magnificent summing up and should be on every school's curriculum.Janine Bolléehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09857073674960699155noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3174947457823680382.post-28403985341259497382012-10-18T02:39:33.282-05:002012-10-18T02:39:33.282-05:00Suzie, you have said what I was trying to say, but...Suzie, you have said what I was trying to say, but yours is a real poem.
