I hope that the difference of opinion that I have
with you is honest. I appreciate having the AA News
made available to me over sanet-mg. You say that
you are familiar with each of the pesticide reports
mentioned, but I am not. I know only enough about
them to realize that it is a fact that they are getting
considerable play, and it is my opinion that they are
going to be part of the backdrop for Farm Bill
debate in the coming months.

I would appreciate knowing more about your take on
the reports. That, to me, seems an appropriate use
of sanet-mg. Witholding distribution of the Wallace
Institute newsletter would, to me, be an
inappropriate way to address honest differences of
opinion.
