		<description>Hi Becca,

I&#039;m curious, do you think that the science of climate change is all bogus too?  Evolution?  I&#039;m always curious when people accept real science in some cases, yet deny it in others. 

Honestly, if I ever found evidence of transgenic plants being hazardous I&#039;d publish it on the cover of Science AND Nature. I&#039;d get grants for the rest of my career and start a whole new area of scientific inquiry.  The best evidence just does not point that way. Lots of people worldwide are looking for such evidence and the best they can get are irreproducible studies in obscure journals.

This is a technology that can help feed more people and have less impact on the environment. That&#039;s what I&#039;m in it for. Don&#039;t be too short on your assumptions of my motivations as part of this website.</description>

		<description>It doesn&#039;t appear that you put any links in your comment. Feel free to try again, 2 or more links might have your comment held by the blog for moderation, just to warn you, since at your first comment hiccup you decide to make huge assumptions about us. Biofortified does not accept money from the biotech industry.</description>

		<description>My opinion contains no links!  But this biotechnology fortified website is pure propaganda, lies and deceit.  Just like the presidencies since the 1980&#039;s and many of our U.S. Senators and Congress persons, legislators, and colleges and universities which received generous donations and bribes from the biotech-pesticide industry.</description>

		<description>I&#039;ve been an organic consumer since the mid-80&#039;s, and have been purchasing more and more certified organic agriculture as it has become available.

The more I know about how conventional food is grown, the more I will spend every food dollar fighting GMO&#039;s and toxic untested agriculture.  I admit that I was slow to act, choosing to gather information first before becoming an activist.  

But, my way of helping the economy is to fight the Obama Administraton like I did with Bush-Cheney before them.  The lies and deceit about the so-called safety of our food.

The only safe food that is nutritionally rich is organically grown in accordance to the original law passed by Congress --not the weakened law as it is today.  But, even at that, I&#039;ll still buy from organic farmers over Monsanto, given a choice.

Of course, U.S. Senate bill 510 eliminates that choice.  It allows BIG BROTHER to control all the food and gives the consumers, backyard gardeners, small farmers, no choice about what they grow or buy.

This report of yours is not factual.  You have taken things out of context.  Organic consumers trust in organic agriculture and organic farmers they know, which is the reason Monsanto has to eliminate our rights to get their way.</description>

		<description>Great discussion going on here. I just posted some comments and links on other sites that are discussing this poll, so maybe we will have a chance for others to take part in it.</description>
