A suggestion, If you are interested in this subject
drop a note. I will send some addy's for additional reading or make up a
"group" to FWD the important stuff.
I can see some folks are def against it on the list.
This is not the same as hybrids IE using material from the same gene pool.
This is putting toxins and chemicals inside the plant cells that you eat.
That has not been fully studied for long term problems both from the enviro
and health issues.
This stuff is also boycotted and banned in several countries already.
To me it's scary to eat some thing that is immune to Round-up which is
toxic. Or Bt which is only 1 atom different than Anthrax.
They have already been in the genes of Potatoes and tomatoes, Peppers are
in the same gene pool.
