    Pesticides Bad, Wackos Good, Penis size Decrease and other Ill-Effects

    posted in environment, funny |

    A renowned U.S. scientist who has documented fertility and
    sex changes — including decreasing penis size — due to
    environmental contamination says he wouldn’t apply
    pesticides on his own lawn.

    Delivering a special series of lectures this week at the
    University of Western Ontario, Louis Guillette has been
    drawn into London’s lawn-care debate during question
    periods and talk-show interviews.

    “The use of these compounds just for cosmetic reasons,
    just because you don’t want to make dandelion wine from
    your yard or whatever, I think is inappropriate,”
    Guillette, who is associate dean for research at the
    University of Florida, said in a lecture yesterday at
    UWO’s Schulich School of Medicine and Dentistry.

    Based on his own scientific investigations, Guillette said
    there’s enough evidence pesticides put children, wildlife
    and the ecosystem at risk.

    “Just because you can go buy them at the local stores
    doesn’t meant that is appropriate use,” he said.
