>>Dick Marron said "It's a dirty little secret that 2/3 of all pesticides
produced go to
non-farm use."

>That is an astounding statement.  Can you tell us more?  For example, are
export sales counted as 'non farm'?  How about use for grain silos and other
storage areas; are they 'non farm'?

Lloyd, I read so much that I hardly read, but scan a lot. I can't remember
where this came from. I'll try to find it. It's just as astonishing that
pesticides are found in umbilical cord blood. Anyone know how to mine this
data?
