I didn't read them all but I did read some.
It seems to go in line with some of the things I have been saying here.

A lot of good stuff to read. One of my favorites is :
The Myth of Organic Superiority:
"Organic products are safer than chemicals"

I have been saying this for years ...: What is CHEMICAL ? Everything in/on Earth is chemical.
What is NATURAL ? Somehow anything that MAN makes is not NATURAL but if the bees make it it is !!!
NATURAL is another use of oxymoron along w/ CHEMICAL.

I liked the part about the 20% acidity (organic) vinegar.
That stuff will peel the paint off a battle ship.
I hope everyone reads it.
I once messed up and pickled some wieners with straight 10%.
For a test I put them outside and they have been there for going on 4 years I bet you could still eat them without getting sick.
