Ed S. - I didn't want to bias the discourse, so held off commenting.
But since you have gone to the trouble of posting the list, I'll
mention that I was once (and only once) invited to make a
presentation to a Key Foundation event. Not knowing any different, I
made just the type of presentation you'd expect me to make about the
dangers of pesticides. I wasn't invited back. This annual, all
expenses paid vacation is a clever, or perhaps not so clever, effort
to inculcate certain values into people who will then pass along the
same values to their students. Each time, apparently, they have a
token opposition person, like me. Otherwise, it is solid industry
propaganda. Buyer beware. Nothing worth owning is free. Ann
