for their people.


Here's some recommended reading (note particularly that

it's about South
Africa).

I am not disputing that DDT would be eddicacious used in

households
however, like I said, who is going to regulate that in

countries where
regulations are set by blackmailers, terrorists, and

military
governments? If the UN would step in and do what it is

supposed to do,
that would be one way. Are they involved? They should be.

If DDT is
rteleased to the masses, Africa will suffer the same

problems with it as
what happened here. Only through careful control and

regulation should
it be used and all efforts should be made to use

alternate, more safe
methods.
