I know, bad form to respond to myself. But I just had a very disconcerting
thought.
Here's hoping that little issue outlined in the news is the only
issue.
If something more serious occurs - like sterility - I certainly
hope Monsanto ends up in a very serious lawsuit.
Seriously Californians:
I think you made a very critical error in voting down the bill that would have
required GM'd food to be appropriately labeled.

It is not true to claim that all 'natural' products are safe as some are
essential at low levels and toxic at higher levels, e.g in some supplements.
The need is to apply good sceptical science to all claims so that the the
credos, good = natural and bad = GM for instance are treated with the contempt
they deserve.
Another problem is that scientists are corrupted by their employers to support
misleading claims so finding good science is difficult.
Expecting voters to understand science in a world where triviality is paramount
is not a practical solution.[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]

I have tried to convince a friend that all this messing with the genetics as
Monsanto has been doing is bad, but he says that mankind has been doing genetic
modification for millenia:
Look at domesticated animals, for instance, or cereal grains, or fruits
(including tomatoes, which, yes, are actually classified as fruit), just to
mention a few. He can't see that what Monsanto is doing is any different. How
would you respond to that?[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]

I heard on the radio a man who has written a book
on peanut butter. He says the supermarket brands,
like Skippy and JIF, are hydrogenated with oils
that are genetically modified, like soy oil.
Blech.
I love[d] peanut butter. Why don't they have to
label this stuff?? I'd never eat genetically modified
food on purpose.
Also, you know the gooey, sticky residue when you
buy a product and remove the price? Peanut butter
takes it off, he said.
