<<Of course, the real Bastards in this story are the environmentalists!>>

They do tend to jump before the facts are in. One claim was that GMO corn would kill off the Monarch Butterflies. I live in the middle of the corn belt and even with the 100,000,000 that were killed in a freak Mexican freeze last year I saw more last summer than in a long time.

I see where California is crabbing because Bush wants to make 10% ethanol gas the nations standard. Blended gas burns cleaner than MTBE gas and doesn't cause cancer. It also cuts down on the oil we import. Go figure.

If the Europeans want to reject the hybrids, WHY don't they just send their grain to Africa themselves....??? Are they trying to starve the Africans, as well as blame America??

Of course.
