Dioxins

[valley ranch]

Greetings, Horses died, people became sick! You can't really believe Dioxins are on food, children or in you body and is not harmful.
You're being a bit silly, why defend or support a dirty dangerous chemical, the chemical companies do that for you~With Your Taxes~ and Mine.

Quote: {And what exactly makes you SOOO wise?}


I was/am a med tec, went to college, I studied papers on the subject. We teach people with physical and cognitive problems to ski or otherwise move and enjoy the snow. We can observe and conclude as well as anyone how an injury occurred by doing a primary and secondary assessment.

You and I do this with plants in our garden, we can judge if there is too much, not enough or insult by physical, mineral or chemical inoculation as well as anyone.

If you think our vets, who are injured and diseased are just whining complainers, having judged their illnesses to be Agent Orange[Dioxin] caused, that's hard hearted and Stone walling, in my book.

Hope you enjoy the great winter we're having.

here in our town there was wide spread of perchloroethylene and benzine contamination from past dry cleaner, textile industries or old gas stations from leaking tanks or illegal dumping. we still get testing kits every couple years for the state. so far the only thing they can find in our well water is that we are high in iron and manganese.. most all the homes in the town are now on city water.....

My FIL served in Vietnam and was exposed to Agent Orange. He was a big, strong, healthy man, very lean and athletic, but suffered a brain stem stroke at age 50, and another stroke at 57 which finally killed him. Not many survive that kind of stroke, but the man he worked for recognized the signs and got him quickly to the hospital. He suffered debilitating headaches and dizziness following that. He also developed type 2 diabetes. When he died, my MIL was eligible for a type of widow's pension that is for combat related deaths. The government fully admitted that his stroke and diabetes were a result of being exposed to Agent Orange. It was a difference of around $1000/month in the pension amount between what she was given and the other type had it not been ruled combat related.

Glad to hear she was taken care of.
Spilling Dioxins on our soil will, I think, come back to bite us.

We sold an animal to a family who had planed to douse his 200 acres with Glyphosate to get ride of a pest bush. I described the migration of glyphosate to the water table, And he listened. He told me a week later he was buying goat, many of them to do the job on this plant they wanted ride of. That was good, I think. Every bit that doesn't go into the land is that much less.
