There were no complaints from users of DDT. In my ignorance I thought is was marvellous. Round-up just may be in the same category.

I recently drove across Saskatchewan along the highway just above the US border. Few birds, few flowers alongside the road just like silent Spring. Beautiful crops with appearance of a green living room rug. When a youngster in Saskatchewan at one time one couldn't see the grain for the weeds. Much care and cultivation was required to suppress weeds. Now control is all chemical. My gut feeling is that this is a mistake.
