I have real qualms about "Roundup ready" GMOs, for example

I do too, Shub, but for vastly different reasons.

I expect you may be totally unaware that Monsanto leased a GMO corn with a super gene that overcame adverse climate, infertile soil, even surviving drought when most every other living thing died.

And what did Monsanto do with such corn?

- Nothing much. There was some lackadaisical research and a small planting or two but that was it. Besides Monsanto sold Round-Up.

Others who didn't sell Round-Up also forgot their leased super plants. Harris Seed even abandoned a fully developed and approved super vegetable, eggplant from a vague memory, and I suppose went with the BT variety.

Only an Israeli banana company got serious about the super banana but couldn't get past the GM superstition. It's GM Cavendish might have been totally oblivious to the worldwide current threat of extinction that destroyed Big Mike [Michelina] decades ago with disastrous consequences.

My speculation is that the purported Michelina survivors in Jamaica today are actually new sterile crosses of very different, inedible species. Every Cavendish tree is essentially one plant grown from cuttings.

For information only the original GMO agbiotech I described was merged with a Phillip Frost humanized cow antibody biotech that now is about to be 70%-owned by an Israeli-American biotech that plans to cure [not treat, cure] terrible nonsense [from antisense lingo] diseases like cystic fibrosis and muscular dystrophy.

For certain, Shub, scientists can kill as well cure. I am not clear as to whether the new Mike West AgeX that would cure aging is a blessing or a curse.

Have a happy weekend contemplating living forever in good health. Do not think about having no room to breathe in a living hell.

Best, Terry
