"John Thomas" wrote in message ... some ignorant poster wrote: I saw the thing I posted as a lampoon of the manufacturer, which is precisely what Monsanto is. You might want to read a bit more before being so sure about "the people doing it". A book called "The Botany of Desire" would be a good start. Easy reading, very informative. Read? I've been working in this for over 20 years. With a PhD in a related field, I just might know what the hell I'm talking about, even more so than your average poster here. Just maybe. If you want a good popular writer on the topic, try Peter Raven instead. I propose, then, that you are too close to "the field" to see the simple logic you missed in this paragraph, written by you earlier: "All varieties of food crops are genetically modified. Just what the heck do you think 'plant breeding' is, anyway? At least the people doing it have a better idea of exactly what happened, unlike pre-recombninant methods." Get back to me tomorrow after you've thought about it a bit, and I'll straighten you out. It involves a factor you cannot deal with in a scientific fashion. |
