Subject: RE: BS: Are Bio-genetic foods safe?
The GEF's may not kill you, but those crops designed to resist disease and chemicals in the growing fields may take over those fields and subjugate retentntion or expansion of the gene pool. One company has produced a ****** that can't be killed off... even with some of the most potent defoliants known. And they supply seed under contract for one year at a time, so if you don't personally kill every and all such plants and their offspring and you don't buy the company's seed for next year's crop, they can severly fuck you in a court of law. Now, that may not kill you, but it may kill the farming industry as we know it.
