GMO = genetically modified. Monsanto splices in some genes that make the plant roundup resistant. The problem is that no one knows if the Franken-plant will be a problem in the future if its pollen mixes with non-GMO plants, if it may create poison, etc. I prefer not to take the risk. Nearly all soybeans are GMO these days. It means Monsanto can patent the plant and sue farmers who save seeds from previous years for patent infringement. It’s a very scary scenario we are headed to.

The yousendit links expire in a week, too, so no telling if it was 100 downloads or 7 days whichever came first. :)

Ok, you know me and my hair-brained ideas.....

How about we build a webpage for Granny’s thread...

Then we could put all those files in one place and not have to keep redoing the uploads.

I do have a website that I don’t really use and much bandwidth that I pay for goes unused...

Would that be of interest? Would we need Jim Robinson’s approval for copyright purposes? Don’t know, just asking...
