Silent Spring by grouchobeer on 03-06-2006
Today on ENOUGH ROPE, my guest is Steven Milloy, publisher of JunkScience.com. Steven's panties are in a knot because Pittsburgh has named a bridge after Rachel Carson, whose condemnation of DDT, Milloy says, has made it harder to control malaria-spreading mosquitoes. Am I correctly stating your position, asshat?
Yes but--
Was malaria a big problem in Pittsburgh?
No but--
And in countries where malaria is a problem, aren't the people suffering from famine anyway? If I have to choose between starving third-worlders and bald eagles, I don't even have to think about that.
