The list of malfunctions gets little notice; biotechnology companies are not in the habit of publicizing studies that question the efficacy of their miraculous products or suggest the presence of a serpent in the biotech garden.

Well it sure would be nice to get some examples of these "mysterious" complications that are not getting reported.

I've worked with this stuff and if you think there is some sort of nefarious plan to cover up problems you're wrong.

What I think is that there is a conspiracy of silence within so-called science abetted by the "major" (and largely brain-dead) media such that whatever the problems, and there ARE problems, their response is: "No worries, everything is hunky dorey, we are in charge and we are the Masters of the Universe". Which is to say there is a lot of lying by omission going on, which in turn is a fabulous medium for conspiracy theories. "Leave it to the experts" is NOT a suitable resolution to issues that are so sensitive to our future physical well-being and to our moral sensibilities. Is this clear enough or should be contemplate having Rabbit Man for dinner?

The most obvious thing that is not being reported are the tremendous amounts of failures. You will hear that someone cloned a sheep. They may say that it took years to do it or they may not. What do you think they were doing all those years of research? They were cloning and cloning and cloning and getting monsters instead of sheep.

They only tell us the successes, but not the failures. Even in that sheep example, they did not wait for a thorough examination, they pronounced it a success but later when problems were found there was no publicity for that.
