Strawberry fields not forever

Thanks to our friends in the Bush administration, methyl bromide, a pesticide banned all over the world because it depletes the earth's protective ozone layer and can harm the human neuro system, is still used in the good old USA on tomatoes, strawberries, peppers, and, yes, even Christmas trees. Merry Christmas to you, too, Karl Rove. Makes you think about going all organic, doesn't it?
