Lets review...2000+ studies say there is no problem. 58 studies say
there may be a minimal effect on certain species.

Seems Billy is proving the case to use roundup.

Yeah, a pretty slow week-end. Yawn. I thought I'd look at it from their
side (ya know, kinda like a chess game), so I borrowed "Mendel in the
kitchen : a scientist's view of genetically modified foods" / Nina V.
Fedoroff and Nancy Marie Brown, from the library. It is pro-GMO, and
there isn't a word about Percey Schmeiser. It's kind of interesting.
They talk about the guy who created "Golden Rice". He started off
wanting t increase crop harvests and giving away the technology. Well,
as we all know, harvests haven't increased, the technology is now
private property, and the rice can combine with any rice that's grown
for human consumption (think Percy Schmeiser all over again). Oy Veh.

Anyway, have a good nap, I've got my fly swatter if there's any trouble.
Schlaft gut.
