This is interesting because according to the article, he didn't write any emails about that. Some other guy said he said that in an email.

It'd be nice if someone could pull up an actual copy of the legal filings so we could all read about it, as we are hearing this fourth hand. We have an article referencing a legal filing referencing an email about what someone heard someone else say.

“If I can kill this I should get a medal,” Rowland told a Monsanto regulatory affairs manager who recounted the conversation in an email to his colleagues, according to a court filing made public Tuesday

Wow! That's put the comments in an entirely different light (not surprised at all).

"We have enough to sustain our conclusions" - I read that as, we have enough data, why are we doing yet another study?

"No coordination is going on, he wants to establish some" - again, people are asking for an additional study without considering all the details

"I doubt Jess and EPA can kill this" - the desire to kill the study is broader than just Jess, it's the EPA in general
