Chernobyl? Maybe they lived there for a while because they had nowhere to go. It is a deserted place now. I watched a special on one of the channels in Canada a couple of years ago. Cannot remember the exact title but it was about the scientists monitoring the wolf population that moved in. There were a lot of other topics touched upon too. Never mind the "Life After People" speculations on the History Channel. This is real! Eagles nesting in the high-rises, moose bones and boletus mushrooms registering high on the Geiger. The wolves though, seemed healthy enough. No birth defects noted. We do not know much about how resilient nature is!!. On the other hand look at the problems with pollution in China. It must be an eye opener for the population. Does the government care, though? I live in the country, about 30 miles north of Toronto and we get smog from the industrialized East and the Midwest all the time on hot days. Yet, when I have to go to Toronto on such a day I feel the difference. -----Original Message----- From: C.J.

Read it in the nick of time, too. There will always be gardeners who shrug off pesticides. I had a babysitter from Eastern Europe who told me about cities she could not visit for more than a day because they were so polluted. Didn't people continue to live in Chernobyl? Given the choice, I'd rather not. I'll take my seeds, too, chemical free, thankyou. --- On Tue, 3/5/13, piaba <piabinha@yahoo.com> wrote: From: piaba <piabinha@yahoo.com> Subject: [pbs] Fw: Fwd: opinion piece on seed vendors To: "PBS" <pbs@lists.ibiblio.org> Date: Tuesday, March 5, 2013, 4:53 PM http://nytimes.com/2013/03/… > > > >this is an interesting article about what to consider when choosing a seed >vendor... > > >======= >tsuh yang _______________________________________________ pbs mailing list pbs@lists.ibiblio.org http://pacificbulbsociety.org/list.php http://pacificbulbsociety.org/pbswiki/
