I appreciate you trying to answer, that's exactly why I'm asking these questions. We can't give up and just say it's no use. I know someone in healthcare and they said 20 year olds are coming in with unbelievable pain in huge numbers and not getting any help. We need to ask these huge questions, knowing that we don't have the answer right now. Then we can go in like you did and say, well we can do it with cancer and viruses, but the mechanisms aren't the same. How could we approach it with plastic? We have these bacteria that are working within the environment, how can we do the same thing safely with everyone's bodies? Also, we have to get the chemical companies to stop poisoning us so more isn't added in at every minute. We have to start somewhere.
