    Load a font, set the size and dpi, write a simple loop to take a list of countries, render and measure, compare to length wanted and print those that match. Maybe 10 lines in lisp.

    Smoking was firmly shown to be a cause of lung cancer and other diseases decades ago. Once you do enough studies and control for enough variables you can very clearly pin down the aggregate effect of smoking across a population. While you often cannot establish that smoking caused a specific cancer in a specific individual with 100% certainty, you can very easily determine with a high sigma level of confidence (>3sigma) the effect on a population as a whole.

    Did you know that big tobacco has scientifically 'proven' that chocolate chip cookies are more carcinogenic than tabacco?

    Of course, tobacco itself has very little to do with what is sold as cigarettes by US companies.

    Never heard of permaculture eh?

    Here's a hint, the US is not good at farming. It may be good at producing yields but at the cost of destroying taste, texture, the environment, bees, etc...

    The US government routinely allows agri to poison the citizens. Organic in the US was dictated by large agri. It is just your regular doublespeak that's to be expected in the name of the all mighty dollar.

    I see you have bought into the lies hook line and sinker.

    A blog post that's just opinion and you get modded insightful?

    Aside from your lack of facts, you are blinded by the way in which Organic has been corrupted by the father of lies, the USA.

    You should go visit an organic farm somewhere besides the US where the term organic means very little.
