What small minded, myopic and mean-spirited gall to block an honour for a person such as Rachel Carson for what are purely his own political beliefs. This woman's work went beyond politics and opened the eyes of the world to the danger of ignoring our environment. Shame on Senator Coburn.

She created such questioning that one of Tom's heroes was driven to consume DDT in front of children to counteract these questions. Tom and that clown would have been good mates.

One of my earlier clip on this.

Thank you for the link to your original clip arifsali. I was very happy to read what you clipped at that time.
