It's all in the interpretation. :-)


Isn't it always ;-)


especially when there are a lot of major companies who stand to loose
serious money if GM becomes the norm. Some chemical manufacturers are
already feeling a pinch as demand for their products falls on the world
market, and they see cheap generic glyphosphate (produced by a lot of firms,
often smaller and based in countries like India) taking more of the market.
It has to be expected that these companies will take steps to ensure that
this process is retarded and are probably throwing money about to do this
