There are legitimate reasons for skepticism regarding GM crops, but
please lose the "untested" contention. That's false, and you know
it's false, but you keep saying it anyway. You're doing a disservice
to those of us with real concerns about GM by continuing to make
statements that are obviously wrong. Such statements unfortunately
are used as ammunition by those who would paint all GM skeptics as
ignorant luddites. One wonders if you're actually a pro-GM agent
provocateur out to make GM skeptics look bad.
