In a large handful of instances the OT has brought to light some great solutions to the world's problems & even some scams.

Let's put the OT to use for the good of man kind:

Play very loud music all over the world. Extreme vibration proven to destroy mosquito larvae. Crank up some Motley Crüe!

Mosquitoes are a major food source for billions of other animals.

Well those frickers aren't doing their job. They need to increase their consumption by at least 300%.

I read somewhere that this has been debunked. Mosquito extinction would have little effect on the environment.
