		<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&#039;t have an answer for you.  I do know that since Monsanto has taken over the germicide process, things have been getting &quot;visible&quot;.  If only because of working an &quot;antidote&quot; for their insecticides.  It doesn&#039;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&#039;t rear their ugly side-effect heads for 20 years.  What damage can be done in that time?  Espescially if the company keeps &quot;tweaking&quot; the process before the first side-effect shows up?</description>

		<description>&quot;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.&quot;

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>
