We get that point of view a lot.  Sometimes warranted, but sometimes just because someone doesn't want to make any effort.  Let's see each question, one at a time.

Can you really not grasp this step?  We're not in your home, so we can't do this for you.

Can you define 'organic'?  Would you know it when you see it?  Do you know how to find out what's in a household product?

These questions are harder.  Maybe if you start, we can work together to solve the rest.
Hey, I'm not judging.  I just like to shoot straight.  I'm a man of science.
