<< Powers was, in fact, talking about induced mutations, but the idea remains
the same. The potential of GM to disrupt, massively, the evolved genomes of
thousands of species is, IMO, an issue we should be thinking about. I am a
scientist, and I'm not a luddite, in fact I'm pretty critical of that sort
of thinking. I guess the recent discussion about the unabomber got me
thinking about that. However, I'm beginning to wonder if GM is such a good
idea at this time. I have no doubt that the mapping of the human genome
will, in time, promote health and long life to most of humanity, but I worry
about the disruption of natural cycles, including disease and such, on the
rest of life. >>
Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Steve your absolutely right. :) Watch out were
beginning
to agree. It is something we should be concerned with.
Have a good one,
