i've not read it yet, but supposedly it is a

I'm sure that Monsanto's response will be bigger, glossier, and praise
GM products to the heavens. Supporters of the Guardians Of Privilege
will see this as tampering with the free market. So, why are you
spitting into the wind, bird? ;O)



because it blows
big baby chunks
it blows


ok, having read through the report i was struck by
two things. as pictures are worth a thousand words.
the picture of the conventional soil next to the
organic soil and the other picture of the organic
field next to the conventional field during a time of
drought.

the only unfortunate thing in the report was the
misuse of the word prostrate it should have been
spelled prostate.


Found 'prostrate'! And the sloppy mistake there is a reflection of the
whole doco! I was not the least bit impressed by it given that I kept
wondering where the evidence was. It's all excecutive summary but no
detailed that usually follows for those exceutives who really do give a
shit, can read and then analyse what is presented.

Does anyone know if there is link to a real report or is Rodale now doing
only a dumbed down Dummies job?
