    As for stamping out GM fields - we had a spate of that years ago here in the UK. What did it achieve? Nothing - drove research behind barbed wire fences, wrecked the reputation of Britain as a forward-looking centre for GM research and merely set back programmes a year or so.

    I'm the last person to suggest we jump straight into consuming GM foods, bt at the same time, I have to recognise that with the increased environmental pressure our species is putting the planet under, some form of SAFE GM is the way forward. I strongly disagree with the fact that there are already numerous GM products on the market, but if I project a thousand years into the future, it's nothing other than obvious that this is a route we have to take.

    • but GM is for making money. Where has there been any other benefit (in reality, not marketing propaganda)?formed
