Most non-profits cannot afford to network. My company E4org, Inc. offers a linux-based network solution: email, webmail, firewall, intranet, etc. They pay monthly based on their user base. It saves them tons of $$ and lets them afford things they otherwise cannot. We have found a huge market here in D.C.

it's well known that he fudged his results to get the outcomes he desired. so do the pharma companies that make this rice.
why? b/c there is no better PR for them than "golden rice" to "save the world". it reminds me of the cereal these firms makes: tons of calcium and other nutrients of the month plus enough sugar to choke a cow (cows would actually die from the amount of sugar in breakfast cereals). the sugar probably injures more kids than the calcium helps (see ADHD disorders). but then selling cocaine to kids (Ritalin is almost identical to cocaine chemically) is yet another market with big profit margins.
world hunger now offers a new opportunity: get all those africans hooked on our rice. of course we'll give it away... for now. later we'll send the bill to the WHO.
i am disappointed that Slashdot is now a mouthpiece for pharma food companies to build their mindshare to support their market share. i thought/. was smarter than this. so here's to the Monstanto Corporation!! the Microsoft of the food world.
