Great letter, Phyllis!
 
I learned recently that the family of Jon Huntsman, a minor  presidential 
candidate (R-Utah), sponsors a foundation to cure cancer. 
 
Meanwhile, Huntsman's father made billions by inventing and producing  the 
styrofoam plastic "clamshell" boxes formerly used to package McDonalds  
hamburgers and Filet-o'-fish sandwiches. Environmentalist pressure eventually  
forced McDonalds to abandon styrofoam. We'll never know how many cancers  
were caused by the manufacture and use of all that styrofoam. Not to mention 
how  much of it is now floating in the ocean, and how much ozone-depleting,  
global-warming gases were emitted.
