Guest guest Posted October 25, 2007 Report Share Posted October 25, 2007 Ah, the wonderful world of making stuff up. Has anyone here ever talked to any of these mythical " harvesters " ?? I have ... and in my experience, at least among the organic or better farms at which I shop, the exhibit high standards of cleanliness. They all have children .... At least from my own inquiries, I feel rather confident in suggesting that there is more crud on your kitchen sink and on your floor and in your pillow than there is on these people's hands. Shall you wash your pillow in hydrogen peroxide, as well? I n all likelihood, it's a MUCH unhealthier place than these people's hands. Better sleep with a mask .... Tim, Carla, everyone, you have been taught to fear Nature. You have been taught this through every school lesson and every television show, through every movie and every commercial. You have probably been exposed to such thinking hundreds of thousands of times, quite literally. Now, you have before you an great opportunity, the chance of a lifetime. You have before you the opportunity to chart a new course, to embrace entirely new beliefs and new ways of thinking, to recognize that these fears originated from outside you, and to make a conscious choice to unlearn them. No life thrives in fear, and no amount of self-protective activity substitutes for vitality. Therefore create health the only way you CAN create health ... from the inside, out.

Not that I blame them; if I was out there doing work like that I probly wouldn't wash my hands... Tim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 25, 2007 Report Share Posted October 25, 2007 Elchanan, I used to do volunteer organizing work for the United Farm Workers and so yes I do know something about what I said here... And yes, we all have differing thresholds in this area of personal sanitation. Do you rinse your fruits and vegetables? Do you wash your hands before eating? How about after using restroom facilities? Tim Elchanan <Elchanan wrote: Ah, the wonderful world of making stuff up. Has anyone here ever talked to any of these mythical " harvesters " ??
