"So you feel your version of the DDT effects - or let's say lack of them to line up with that - is closer to the truth?"

Sure. You claims have been debunked numerous times. Yet you still come back with them. Peculiar behavior at best.

And then there are these latest ones. While not totally harmless to humans, it is pretty benign. Nobody disputes this, yet you are pretending you have a killer point.

Raptors are a different matter. But, that isn't even the biggest problem. The problem is the use of DDT for agriculture. Not that is the real problem, the real problem is that the insects, including mosquitoes, become immune when DDT is used like that. So using it for disease vector control is ineffective. Which is what happened in sub-Saharan Africa. Not this nefarious plot you have concocted.

This has happened in other places. The only thing to do is stop using DDT for a while. Because it can persist in the ecosystem so long, that can be a long time.
