To even argue, dillution, is missing the whole point.
Let me simplify, POISONS, are POISONOUS.
The rest of your arguement is invalid.
Your comments here and elsewhere portray your complete ignorance of chemistry and toxicology. EVERYTHING is POISONOUS at some exposure level: copper is poisonous - too much copper intake will kill you; deprive yourself of all copper in your diet and you will DIE - is it poisonous or is it an essential element? IT IS BOTH. All the whining about hydrogen sulfide - is it poisonous, yes at high concentrations; it is also produced inside your cells; without it, your body will die. How about oxygen - we all need oxygen - at too high a concentration, you will not survive more than a few minutes.
To bring the thread back to the original topic: Mr. Ruderman's business model, and the business model of his whole industry, is to instill paranoia in the public consciousness over their food and over non-organic food production - that is their marketing strategy. If they can cripple conventional food production, or make those costs so high, organic producers and vendors are more competitive in the market place. Mr. Ruderman and the rest of organic marketers wrap themselves in a cloak of self-righteousness to protect themselves from any real scrutiny over their motives and the deceptiveness of their whole marketing strategy - the success of that strategy has now emboldened them to attack the conventional farming community that produces the majority of our food. It is self-serving and it is dishonest.
Oh, and the rest of your argument is invalid...
You, like every other person or scientist or data source, edit things to show in your favor. You should have qouted my whole woute.
