Clark,
DDT ban is the biggest farce ever to be put upon the public. It started anti chemical and environmental awareness but the facts didn't get heard. The media science banned the most important pesticide of all time and real science was rejected. Soil samples taken 100 years prior to DDT development test the same level as present day soil. Life today as we know it would not have been possible without DDT. NOT ONE PERSON'S DEATH HAS EVER BEEN ATTRIBUTED TO DDT. DDT was being investigated for medical uses at the time of the ban. Public brainwashed by Silent Spring. Read Since Silent Spring by Rachel Carson. DDT still being manufactured and used in other countries, Chlordane, despite ban is manufactured and used in other countries (also Florida) Lets investigate real science instead of junk science.

Arthur Robinson, formerly Linus Pauling's protege at Caltech and director of the Pauling Institute (before breaking with Pauling over the vitamin C issue), has been collecting these examples of junk science for years. He writes a newsletter called Access to Energy (Box 1250, Cave Junction, Oregon 97523), which lists abundant sources in scientific publications relating to all these issues. Also useful is Howard Hayden's The Energy Advocate, P.O. Box 542, Storrs, CT 06268-0542. J. Gordon Edwards is at San Jose State. Bruce Ames is at the University of California at Berkeley. I just skimmed the surface of a huge trove of scientific material discrediting the global warming and related zero sum fears and fancies.
