Everything posted here is slanted and I'm not sure, from a relative standpoint, how disgusting it is. Anyway, I thought there were a couple of interesting things in there, albeit a bit dated.

I saw Ikuru recently. I had purchased it, because I remembered liking it several years ago- and it still is just as powerful. I don't know if you like classic films, or Japanese films, but when I think of death, or dying, and film, I think of Ikuru, Itami's The Funeral, God Said Ha (Amazing Julia Sweeney Monologue- produced by Tarantino), and Pieces of April- and then of course, for a real downer, Wit- probably one of the best performances on film I've ever seen.

<<And it is the president of Zambia himself who is rejecting GM crops, which are in reality not so much a way to feed humanity as a marketing tool to take the right to save and plant seed away from farmers and pollute and destroy the earth.>>

No one is forced to plant GMO crops. They're just an option.

BTW, you are onto us farmers. We could plant non GMO seeds, raise them organically and get bigger yields and more $$ per bushel but we'd get rich and lose our government checks.
