Hey, just out of geeky interest. What are peoples opinions on GM crops in general and this news? It's just I'm in the field...not GM crops, but genetics, and I was wondering how people who don't have a scientific perspective on these issues feel about them. Anyone who is reading this journal feel free to jump in, or feel free to ignore the question entirely. I'm not trying to rope you into a nasty debate or anything, I'm just a geeky girl who is curious...

Quote from www.science.com (here:
"In late December, the European Commission
proposed new rules that would allow organic
foods to be labeled as such with up to 0.9%
accidental contamination with GM products or
seeds from neighboring farms or during processing.
Several consumer groups have vowed
to fight the proposal to protect what Friends of
the Earth Europe says are consumers who want
food free of “genetic contamination.”

Yeah my dad and my sister...though my sis did a double degree with Engineering...she's a smart cookie! I always lamented the fact that she had an abundance of boyfriend options in the field she chose...way better than bio in that respect. *grin*
