Pesticides ruling

Wow! Something many have hoped for; although the possible effects on the already struggling Hood River valley are somewhat troublesome. Good news, though, in general.

"CropLife America, an industry group representing pesticide-makers, said in a prepared statement that the threat to salmon from pesticides is "non-existent," and that all the products named in the court order have undergone scientific scrutiny and approval by the EPA to protect people and wildlife."

ROFLMAO! And DDT can be used to spice up salads.
