Thanks for posting that research scientist's quote.

I am really surprised so many FReepers believe the government bureaucrats when they say, "Trust me"

I find it disappointing, but not surprising. As a FReeper noted on a similar thread, conservatives see the Earth-worshipping hippie greenies protesting GMO food and react impulsively, rushing to defend "capitalism".

I admit to a reluctance at agreeing with those hippie fruit-loops. (But then again, muslims execute sodomites. I'm not about to start buggering boys just to spite them.)

Even a broken clock is right twice a day. But the fruit loops are anti-business. I am pro science. But not junk science, from either side.

I have a similar reaction when I see the left promoting global warming, and I don't think that's just me being impulsive. To me the GMO issue feels a lot like the global warming issue.
