1,681 miles (more or less). Did you drive alone? If so, that’s VERY impressive even in the vast open, empty, spaces of the western U.S. and 80 mph (more?)speeds. Road warrior indeed!

Reuters story attacking IARC researcher is biased and selective
When the Reuters piece came out, Mother Jones magazine promptly jumped onto the bandwagon. Under the heading “A scientist didn’t disclose important data—and let everyone believe a popular weedkiller causes cancer”, Kiera Butler rehashed Kelland’s article and quoted the biologist and GMO defender Michael Eisen as calling IARC’s policy on unpublished data “silly”. However, far from being “silly”, refusal to consider unpublished data is the norm in science. Transparency and repeatability are cornerstones of science, which is why peer-reviewed publication is a prerequisite for any data being considered seriously.
In short, the transcript clearly shows that Reuters’ Kate Kelland was extremely selective and biased in her reporting of this episode. The most charitable explanation would be that she never saw the full transcript of Dr Blair’s comments and was simply spoon-fed by Monsanto.
“two journalism professors make the case the government should fund journalism…”
Might as well, as the journalists shill for the government when it is Liberal. CBC works so well and it is paid by the Liberals. Kind of like the Soviet Union and Pravda (Truth).

Enroute a camping trip in a 1963 Ford Country Sedan “back in the day”, we passed through Indio, California while it was 120 degrees. Air conditioning was handled by way of the window cranks. Our vicious mother (known as Mothra to this day) would not give us any water because it was probably warm anyway. The wagon was finally retired after I spun the mains doing 90 on the Altamont. It had 320,000 miles on the 390 cid mo-mo. Drove it all the way home to Pacifica. Husband #1 heard it coming a half mile away. Believe the wagon was assembled by you folks. I recall Dad mentioning Commie Canucks as the only disappointment associated with the wagon.
That’s two hard pulls. That’s some hard core road warrior-ing.
how does that compare to brownlee sk to north bay ontario in one stretch? both are hard on drivers!
