Wandering Man:
Interesting.

tecumseh:
I have come to dislike the 'journalist' take on a scientific study.  The study itself was not easy to access but I did manage to receive a copy from an employee of Bayer (used to be Monsanto) for who I used to do consulting work.  We are both busy (so no time line defined) but after we both read the article we shall discuss the implication of the study and before that I will discuss same with both Dr Rangel and Danny Weaver.

Chip Euliss:
PNAS papers are top notch and carry a very high impact factor.  Peer review is tightly controlled as in other top notch journals.  I gave up on roundup when it was shown many years ago to kill amphibians and turn others into hermaphrodites.  Monsanto has been around a lond time---they provided us with DDT and they still sell it in countries where it is legal such as Mexico.

Chip Euliss:
Here's the link to the PNAS study:  http://www.pnas.org/content/115/41/10305

Looks like a very nice piece of work to me
