Is the organic food movement the most anti-science social movement out there?

And then wallow in ignorance about agriculture.

Given that you've displayed an absolute lack of knowledge in this and related threads, in an area which is supposedly that of your expertise, I'm going to have to laugh at this one.

What university did you say you were attending again?

[ricketyclik]

It's basic ecology.

As I suspected. You have zero evidence to demonstrate that there is any real danger here.

It really is basic ecology. Diversity = robustness, as can be demonstrated in a number of ways in a half hour lecture. Show us evidence to the contrary.

[KrazyHorse]

I'm recieving a Phd in Interdisciplinary Ecology from the University of Florida, Florida's land-grant university and a world-leading agricultural research institution.

a) You're not receiving ****, yet. You haven't done your thesis work. You're nothing but a candidate puke

b) Thanks for the info. Now, to find what drivel you've been wasting your time with....

And the point of "monarch butterfly" was "migration", not a debate on the impacts of Bt corn.

Errr...you're the one who brought up Bt corn. And there is no debate. It's harmless. Your concerns are apparently those of somebody who read newspapers from 10 years ago.

And the point of "I'm American" is that we are not a monoculture, culturally speaking (note the Vanana Shiva quote). Sure, we've developed a monoculture-based agriculture, but I was speaking tongue-in-cheek.

If only you could learn to speak brain-in-head.

Read the thread. I embarrassed Drake (and his cronies) badly.


From someone who does not like me, referring to this thread:

Actually Drake and KH are probably smarter than you. The fact that you've fended off people that had the balls to attack you in your area of expertise isn't particularly impressive and outside of that you're as silly as the other polytards.

(bolding mine)

Now, if HE is going to give me credit for putting your BS away... perhaps you should reconsider how inept I've been.

ricketyclick, you are one of the half-dozen posters who have convinced me that everybody from Australia and New Zealand is dumb as ****.

[KrazyHorse]

Read the thread. I embarrassed Drake (and his cronies) badly.

No, I read the thread. You no more embarrassed Drake than you are my superior in intellect or education.

You're a laughingstock at this site. You can't even hold your own in a debate with half-interested posters in what is supposedly your area of expertise. You've been assraped by every reasonably intelligent poster who could be bothered to achieve semi-tumescence in your presence.

[Ecofarm]

Typical worthless vomit from you. We are all so thankful.

You intellect is a pittance of memorization. Your education is entirely mundane. You're boring and miserable, and it shows.

[KrazyHorse]

"It's basic ecology" is not an answer. It is an appeal to authority in a subject where, as far as I can tell, there are no clear experiments establishing fundamental principles. There are only a bunch of chicken littles like ecotard throwing around meaningless buzzwords like sustainability, a concept they can't even quantify.

You should be, you 40-something wasted-life-in-progress

WTF have you been doing with your time?

Wait, gribbler is supposed to be some sort of giant adversary for you? Didn't he join last week around the same time you did, you twit? Were you both over at the little kids' site together or something?

I now await my passport renewal via mail to embark on dissertation (not thesis) research.

You're an idiot. The guy hates me, that's why the quote has considerable weight.

Working for a financial institution surely you are aware of the "eggs in one basket" principle. Now stretch your imagination and apply it to an ecosystem, or the interface between an agricultural system and its environment.

Is the light dawning, or does it need to be spelt out to the genius?

Standard KH response when content is against him.

Putting whose BS away? Certainly not KH because he hadn't engaged you in this thread up to that point. Maybe me because I don't know crap about farming but then again it's hard to falsify vague "chicken little" arguments.

edit: and at this point I wouldn't put that "probably" in there

What's the "Elite Private University"?
