So the latest damage caused by Greenpeace is real scientists losing jobs without reason. (from the latest story) Scientists on the key committee which oversees trials of genetically modified crops are angry at plans by Environment minister Michael Meacher to replace almost all of them at once. Neeed I quote the earlier letter from the Royal Society: "Those who start telling the media about alleged scientific results that have not first been thoroughly scrutinised and exposed to the scientific community serve only to mislead, with potentially very damaging consequences."

When will the anger turn towards Greenpeace, where it belongs? "Anger at GM trials changes"

This is OUTRAGEOUS! From the following link, click on the "United Kingdom" flag in the lower right, then the "true food revolution", then the "potato head" link: greenpeace.org If you follow those instructions, you will find a web page with a potato head image of the UK prime minister which says: "Genetically engineered food must be banned. The future is true, organic food and that is what the British people clearly want." THESE are the people behind this whole GM scare, who move entire countries, and cause scientists to lose jobs! It has nothing to do with real food safety issues...Greenpeace wants to convert the whole country to the organic food suppliers! I think I am going to barf.
