Breath

Sounds illuminating, eh?


Don't go that far. There are at least two questions to consider:

1. Is it really harmless to do away with mosquitoes, or is it a selected presentation of facts to support the WHO or other global health programs?
2. If it is a fair argument and eradication of mosquitoes really has little effect to the ecologic system, why couldn't it be extrapolated to other organisms - say, sharks, tigers, or polar bears?

An Aesop's Fable comes to my mind:

***********************

A man lost his way in a wood in a bitter winter night. As he was roaming about, a Satyr came up to him, and, finding that the man had lost his way, promised to give him a lodging for the night. As the man went along to the Satyr's house, the man raised both his hands to his mouth and kept on blowing at them. 

"What do you do that for?" said the Satyr.

"My hands are numb with the cold," said the Man, "and my breath warms them."

After they arrived at the Satyr's home, the Satyr put a smoking dish of porridge before the man. When the man raised his spoon to his mouth, he, once again, began blowing upon it. 

"And what do you do that for?" said the Satyr.

"The porridge is too hot, and my breath will cool it."

"Out you go," said the Satyr. "I will have nought to do with a man who can blow hot and cold with the same breath."
