My dad is in his 90s and used Roundup since it first came out (and 2,4-D before that). No cancer. Sorry folks, if it caused cancer, I'm pretty sure my old man would have it.

I know, anecdotal evidence and all that, but I can't think of anyone I know with Hodgkin's lymphoma, and I have been around farmers and aerial applicators all my life.

If they people in the factory, and the people with the greatest lifetime exposure aren't getting it, how in Hades can you say these occasional users are getting sick from roundup.

The feels. It's all about the feels.

And the socialist mentality garbage that somebody must be responsible, and in the even of lack of evidence of who - default to who you perceive to have the deepest pockets. After all, corporations are all evil, remember?

this seems like a solid article to me, and links to the studies it references. and to your question, even the study purporting a potential link between elevated glyphosate exposure and cancer shows zero cancer correlation in ordinary levels of exposure.

edit: would help if i actually included the link to the article

Even if it were true, I'd be too embarrassed to say that I got cancer from using Roundup.

HAHA...LOL.

No.

For 289 MILLION DOLLARS I will say whatever I need to say.

I wouldn't. Seriously. I don't mind working and earning my money honestly.

Price?

Money grab. Disgusting. But chock up another millionaire attorney or five.

How does A&M not have a part in this research?

This is why I can't ever get on a jury. I understand causality and correlation vs causation, probabilities, and statistics. I get struck every time when I put down my background and education.

I'm convinced Lawyers are concerned about jurists they suspect are smarter than they are AND probably have a broad array of existing knowledge that might affect their perspectives beyond the contrived presentation of evidence. They do not want their cases picked apart by intellectual jurists. It makes deliberations much less predictable.
