  1. Re:Stopping Science = Stopping Thought. GL,HF on Activists Destroy Scientific GMO Experiment · · Score: 1

    Don;'t forget that when these comapnies little experimetns manage to blow up in their face that they then have a source of perfectly preserved heirloom seeds thatthey have stored away in a vault. They make money even if GMO fails.

  2. Re:RTFA on Activists Destroy Scientific GMO Experiment · · Score: 1

    As pen and teller said, I would personally execute ever single chimp on the planet, to save one human life. So would I.

    Pen and Teller are a pair of arseholes. if you would do that to save one human life then that makes it a trio.. From the greed point of view, making an existing farm produce 2-10x as much from the same land will spark some pretty high priced lobbying from the farming industry.

    But GM crops aren't providing much better yields that the non GM versions. In mnay cases they are providing smaller yields. Even Monsanto attests to this. What is undeniably increasing is the amount of round up being used over the same amount of land when servicing the GM versions..

    You don't have to be a greeny to be against GMO. I live completely off the grid and I am accused of being an environmentalist all the time. I am not. I am a realist.

    So i guess that the fact that one type of GM potato contains DNA from a moth means that this could/would also be the result of selective breeding. You are a fool.

  19. I am uninformedLuddite on CDC Warns of Zombie Apocalypse · · Score: 1

    the only child of Mr and Mrs U. Luddite. My father was a very wealthy cocoa merchant before he and my poor mother were infected with the ZomLypse Virus. Due to the special nature of this virus the coroner is unable to provide a death certificate as Mum and Dad are still mobile and have been scene eating out in public quite often. As I witnessed the virus infecting and rapidly taking control of my father he managed to make me aware (through the tics, convulsions, and gnashing of teeth) of a large quantity of gold and gemstones hidden on a local and nearby island. This island is effectively under quarantine and unapproachable through normal channels. I have managed to contact a group known as the A-team and upon prepayment of the agreed sum of $200,000USD they are willing to undertake this very dangerous mission. Your share if you should choose to partake of this once in a lifetime opportunity would be in the region of $10,000,000USD. As a person of honour and integrity I believe that you would happily invest this necessary sum helping to liberate this wealth and to snatch it away from the the heartless, grasping hands of Mammon.

    Yours in love,

    Uninformed Luddite

    That is such a manipulative lie. That started to get floated around the time that homosexuals were coming out of the closet so as to shut up opposition as 'real' men who had whatthey felt real and valid objections didn't want to be labelled as the enemy. If that old maxim is true that must make me a black homosexual jewish trombone player. Feel free to mod me down especially when you don't really know why you are doing it

  25. Re:Why do they keep trying this? on This Robot Needs a Hug · · Score: 1

    The problem with Japanese society is that they respect and care for their elderly and this takes away time they could be spending working for the corporation. Now they can do it from their work cubicle and still be productive. That's why a lot of japanese robotic research is geared towards carer type robots.
