From the Quotation of the day mailing list, 2008-01-29:

"My biologist brain says, 'There's not a lot you can conclude from the [environmental] evidence.'

"But I've got a 9-year-old girl. And as a mother, I say, 'They've introduced all these chemicals into the environment, and they have no idea what it's doing. What are they, nuts?' I want data demonstrating safety, not data demonstrating ignorance."

-- Sandra Streingraber, biologist and visiting scholar at Ithaca College.
