  5. Re:There is a middle ground. on Nanomaterials More Dangerous Than We Think · · Score: 2, Interesting

    ACtually I buy eggs, steak, fish, milk, fruits, vegatables from local farmers who do not use GM methods. I'm aware that restaurant food is of questionable origin but I don't eat out that often, and since airline food is expensive and crap and I don't fly very often that is also an easy avoid. Notice I said "when possible". Are you aware that you come off as a pompous git?

    Speak for yourself. I go out of my way to avoid GM foods, and try to purchase goods from local farmers where at all possible. Not all of us are idiots.
