		<description>ACT,   

I thought the Terminator seed would just produce sterile plants ? It believe that to produce good seed, you need two non-sterile plants, one male and one female, corn being a unique exception. I wonder if Monsanto is the only company making seed  with this sterility attribute ? 

Yes, I agree, in light of the RAS study, more research is needed, and truth in labeling re ge foods.</description>

		<description>Dan,

Good question.  I don't have an answer for you.  I do know that since Monsanto has taken over the germicide process, things have been getting "visible".  If only because of working an "antidote" for their insecticides.  It doesn't appear that the Terminator falls within this catagory.  Instead of spraying the seed/crop during infestation, it is IN the seed/crop from beginning to end and it also takes dominance over all other like seed and changes that seed.

I think it will be some time before we really can get good, conclusive studies showing affects.  We have already seen products that don't rear their ugly side-effect heads for 20 years.  What damage can be done in that time?  Espescially if the company keeps "tweaking" the process before the first side-effect shows up?</description>

		<description>"According to the USDA in 2007, ... while GE soy is at a staggering 91%.  This means most soy on the market is genetically engineered.  This is very frightening indeed."

But, is this 91% the Monsanto GE soy which was the subject of the Russian Academy of Sciences study ? A study in mice with GE herbicide-resistant  soy was published in 2004 and found no adverse effects</description>
