"FDA approval is pretty much a rubber stamp in this case..IMHO"

IMO, this sort of thinking is flawed at any time for any NDA/BLA. But I am completely at a loss how you can make such a statement given the recent (last 3 years) inconsistencies within drug approval applications in the US and the fact this will be a first filing for a new technology (in US) and comes from a tiny biotech with no other US approvals under its belt.

But then again quite a few things you write make no sense to me.

A friend of mine is a researcher at Ohio State. Someone got his name and sent him a link to this site; he sent it to me just to show the kind of nonsense he has to deal with.

A quote from the site:

'The Bible says that God requires humans, animals, and plants to reproduce "after their own kind." Species integrity was therefore required by God. Transgenics not only violates this order but opens a Pandora's box to a potential molecular nightmare. Transgenics is evil! Read "Making Genetic Monsters!" '
