<<I think the corn, soybeans and vittles would taste a heck of a lot better with just the insects and without all those deadly chemicals they spray on the crops...>>

I agree with you....lets ban all crop dusters and move towards organic food production whenever possible. Whole Foods (a natural foods grocery chain) is incredibly popular here in Chicago. It wouldn't bother me if the country stopped spraying toxic pesticides on our crops -- we'd probably improve the quality of our groundwater supply too....=)

Regards,

Scott

OT: In the Chicagoland area, there's a distributor called Timber Creek Farms who delivers organic produce to your door (cost is comparable to getting organic produce at the grocery store). We never know what we'll get, it doesn't have that waxy-new look, and every so often there's a bug, but it sure does have flavor.

P.S. Is it just me, or does anyone else have problems loading SI pages fully? I seem to have to refresh 3 or 4 times every so often.
