Research facilities are very tightly controlled and monitored to prevent the escape of GM crops into the wild, and the scientists conducting the research are certainly not creating the dangerous chimaera which anti-GE folk seem to claim. <br /><br />I would also note that there is a significant overlap between the greenie vegetarian crowd and anti-GE lobbyists, and the irony of these folk chowing down on vast amounts of soy milk and other products seems lost on them given that the majority of the worlds soy crop is the result of genetic modification.Latsnoreply@blogger.com
