I recently posted some of the websites I found pertaining  to Fluvianate.
Those websites were all about the many pesticides that exist out  there.
Some of them are more persistent than others and when one thinks about it,  
in the old days of DDT ,PCB, dioxins etc they were used in specific  areas yet 
are in our entire ecosystem- the Arctic and Antarctic for example. We  all 
know how they got there.
 
Who is to say that any area is pristene only to be deemed so by our  
detection limits and only if we are looking for all of those "any- kind -of  -cides" 
as was put above.
If you make a sale, you've conducted a business transaction involving honey  
as a product or anything else.
"Organic" is a play on words that if defined in todays business world mean  
PROFIT.
