Oh, those poor frogs!!! Bad, bad man!!! Why do you think it OK for you go go around putting yourself above those noble amphibians? You do you think your need for fewer weeds to be more important that those small, defenseless little frogs.

"I'm not saying that it is harmful to humans and I'm not saying it's not harmful to humans."

Sounds like the usual academic double speak when the guy has an agenda. Keep in mind that Tyrone was associated with the University of California, Berzerkley (yes, that is spelled correctly) campus at the time and had a hand in a major lawsuit against the atrazine manufacturer.

Oh Lord, sometimes I'm so glad I left my home state.

"Male frogs . . . can develop multiple sex organs . . ."
If you could make a pill that'd do that to humans, you'd be the nineteen richest people on Earth!

". . . both male and female organs." so , , , they can literally go screw themselves?
