And then what??

From ‘Springdale family goes to war with mosquitoes’

“Horror stories exist from days past when DDT was applied massively and when communities ran fogging trucks in warm weather evenings with children running behind and playing in the pesticide vapor.”

(And what happened then, all those children running behind and playing in the pesticide vapor? Did they all drop dead from DDT poisoning? Did they all have horrible physical deformities within a year? Did their children all suffer terrible birth defects? Or … Or is it possible nothing happened? Rachel Carson was not a paradigm of honesty.)
