Non Scientist has just delivered it's weekly headline email to my in box. Makes a big thing about the head line and then seems not to mention the article to which it belongs.
However it does have an outline of a piece based on a paper that suggests acetaldehyde is the root of all human health problems (well, maybe not quite ALL but the list starts with alcohol and moves through tobacco and exhaust fumes to food. Pretty much covers all bases.)
Darn it. Seems the only way to live longer is to kill ourselves .... er, or was that saving the planet?
The irony that one half of the eco-stateists want to stop people enjoying things because it might be killing them prematurely compared to the other half of the eco-stateists suggesting the should be fewer of us if we want to save the planet seems to be lost in the media noise.
It would be really nice if we could park them somewhere out of the way for, say, 100 years so that they could thrash things out between themselves and come back with a useful proposal. Or to not come back with a proposal would also be fine. By then I won't care one way or the other. Nor, most likely, will be kids.
