Genesis book looks great, btw, hope to order a copy soon. Maybe next time you're down here, you can help me set up a Linux-based machine to run all those nifty apps.

Me mum and I heard about it and went to the field. It was quite spectacular! There was a bloody crop circle near the bog of Kinsington a few months back.

Also, I heard some guy remark the other day how about 60 years ago (or whatever, the exact number doesn't matter), all food was organic food. I think about that every once a while: It would be great if there were no "organic food markets" cause really, all of our food should be organic. Noam Chomsky always talks about what martians would say if they came down to earth, I think one thing they'd say is, "So, you eat food that was grown with toxins and poisons?"

For some, they're not accessible, too expensive, or filled with too many new age hippies for comfort. So like it or not, "conventional grocery stores" can't be kicked to curb so easily. Your argument for rallying the mighty dollar behind nutritional change in our supermarkets is right on, and it's already working, as you mentioned (http://www.ingles-markets.com/organic.php). The organic section is no longer a section at many larger chain stores. Organic fruits and veggies are mixed in with conventionally-grown produce, organic milk, soy milk, cheese, & yogurt are in the dairy aisle, blue-corn chips and organic snacks abound, and most surprisingly, Seventh Generation paper goods now sit right alongside Bounty and Charmin. These products are only there because there is a market for them, and they are being *chosen* by consumers who may or may not be having a "pleasant experience" while they shop. I hate those enormous florescents, and I feel like cattle when I'm wandering the aisles, but sometimes Ingles is the best I can do, sometimes heart-attack-laden Fried Chicken is too. It's a choice I make, a conscious process, which I think is what we're after. Liquor sure doesn't do our liver any good, but we still imbibe in Bloody Marys and Vodka Tonics on occasion. It's our choice. Amen to supporting local agriculture, local business, and sustainable farming. But I'm not ready to damn 90% of my neighbors to the devil because they haven't heard the Good News yet. Who knows, "organic" may become the new "low-carb" and then Ingles would start to look a little more like Earth Fare (except for the lights). Money is the honey, indeed, and you catch more flies that way too. Thanks for looking into the science of trans-fats/hydrogenate oils, now we can know what we're talking about.

Although they broadcast an annoying tone that causes kids to feel uneasy. Adults can't hear it and aren't affected by it. It's funny that at first, the technology was used "Against" kids. now they're using it for their own purposes.

While I don't have kids yet, my wife and I sometimes discuss whether or not we would have our kids vaccinated. I personally feel vaccination is a farce, thanks for posting Robert's article. Bravo.

Although I'd say he's topped Chomskey, in terms of meaningful fact-finding combined with analysis. Greg unconvered the 2000 election frauds well before the Supreme Court decided to not cound Florida's votes. His reports went to press in European papers but not in American papers, which is why Europeans had been wondering why we would approve of such a fraudulent president. Then Greg was documenting Ohio, New Mexico and another state I forgot, in the 2004 election and how many votes were deliberately thrown away...all during the recount fiasco. Once again, brushed aside. His new book is going to document how the election will be stolen in 2008, I plan on buying it. I hope you do too. I concur: Greg Palast is amazing.
