It's not the least charm of a theory that it is refutable. The hundred-times-refuted theory of "free will" owes its persistence to this charm alone; some one is always appearing who feels himself strong enough to refute it - Friedrich Nietzsche

Like bowling greens - residual toxicity renders them dangerous to use once the players fade away...

You don't ''catch'' Parkinson's, you are born with it, and it needs a trigger. One of the triggers has been found to be agricultural chemicals. A friend of mine got Parkinson's over 20 years ago when he was 63...he thought he had chemical poisoning because he was working in a garden centre nursery, but that was the trigger.

Golf courses are recognised as one of the most toxic horticultural environments due to the amount of herbicide use required to keep those links' and greens' seemingly pristine appearance. Golfer's liver is a recognised affliction and it not due to '19th green' activities. Bowling greens are similarly risky.
