| ------- MONSANTO ------ It is an understatement to say I feel reluctant to trust a company that somehow managed to "convince" regulators that PCB's were safe (I consider them the greatest chemical environmental pollution hazard we face). One that offered a Canadian regulatory agency $2 million to accept BGH without further data or testing. Those guys who brought us (and assured us of the safety of): Agent Orange, RoundUp, and Aspartame (NutraSweet) now want us to trust them with our seed and food supply. They have a good scam: they bioengineer seeds for such properties as producing sterile plants so farmers HAVE to buy seeds EVERY YEAR! Say NO to Aspartame Corporate Watch: List of articles about Monsanto Homepage of those loveable folks at Monsanto: gives a bit of an insight into their sordid world. They SAY they changed their minds about making all seeds produce sterile plants.
