I understand what they hippies mean by "organic." I just can't stand it because I know what "organic" really means.

There was an article in my local paper talking about the man who coined the term "organic food." He was a big time hippie. He now lives in southern California and if I remember correctly, pushing for more nuclear power. He realized that the scaremongering tactics of the environmentalists back in the 70s really harmed us in the long term and wants to change it.

I can't remember his name for the life of me. It was one of those articles that's interesting to read and easy to forget.
