Max, I made a conscious decision 35 years ago to go organic and have never looked back. I am guessing we could trade conflicting research results until we're blue in the face and likely not change one another's mind. Organic just feels 'right' to me - no poisons, no weird mixtures, no worries about whether chemicals might be good, bad, or neutral, or how they might affect the natural world in 10-20-30 years. My mind is at ease with my decision, which I really don't think is fear-based. It is just common sense for me.
