Yup, this was us back then.


What about the trucks driving around fogging the neighborhood with DDT to kill the mosquitoes ? I remember that quite well.

DDT. Great stuff for bugs, kills em dead. I remember i's over in Africa staying in the Army R&R center in Misawa Ethiopia and I got a ferocious case of crabs. Knocked on the docs door and he tossed me a can of DDT powder. Problem solved. Course it nearly killed off a bunch of different birds. Depleted the calcium from their eggs. No hard shells. Oops!
