The Limits of the Internet or The Silence Of the Streets
Current rating: 0
05 Mar 2006
While the internet is fabulous when it comes to finding out how many like-minded people there are around you, it is at the same time sadly a silent and invisible weapon. No internet campaign will ever make it to prime time TV or to the front page of any paper. In case you are in doubt, just remember Ukraine last winter.

Current rating: 0
04 Mar 2006
A U.S. research team from Emory University in Atlanta analyzed urine samples from children ages three to 11 who ate only organic foods and found that they contained virtually no metabolites of two common pesticides, malathion and chlorpyrifos.
