My wife and I were at a language conference in L.A. and we were winding down at the bar. We met a very personable lawyer who was in town representing Monsanto Chemical Company. He was from the Philadelphia and had been working there for seventy six days and counting.
Monsanto was fighting a law suit. The Company was being sued for making and distributing a chemical that had been proven to be a carcinogen. The Company’s defense is that at the time that they sold this particular item, they did not know that it was a health hazard and therefore should not have to take responsibility for the dangerous content and the liability.
Recently the World Health Organization declared Roundup a probable carcinogen. The herbicide glyphosate is the active probable harmful ingredient found in Roundup.

Good article today in the Sarasota paper about the ills of round up. Of course I use it, we have brick pavers around parts of our driveway and it does the work. My gardens however I hand weed, a continuing process that keeps me busy all year but I actually enjoy it, outdoors, quiet, not taxing, whatever.
I just got a text from the guy who helps me in Middletown who says it is snowing today, no break.
I’ll send some pictures when I get home in mid April if there is no snow. Lee says if there is we are flying back to Florida. Welles
