Yeah Rakishi is right. (literally about the stone age thing) Nearly every plant that comes out of the USA, including the thousands of tonns we simply give away all over the world is genetically altered. It saves money and allows farmers to use less pesticides and makes more produce per plant. There is a relationship between genitic altering and crossbreeding. It alters DNA. Its the same damn thing. One is done by scientists the other by the machinery of the plant. The entire world eats "frankedfood" with no ill effects. Except europe of course because you morons believe the bad science mumbo-jumbo that started this ignorant belief in Europe. Wierd how you guys are the only "seeing" the effects of genetically altered food. I smell the same crap happening again with nano-technology.
Why does this all sound like Europe's reaction to genetically altered vegetables?
They called it frankenfood...nevermind that without genetic altering corn would be a weed. This sound all too much like another ill informed reaction to a new technology those "across the pond" refuse to embrace or understand.
YADMAC- you are dumb minus all credit
I think it would be fairly difficult to significantly change the mass of the moon. I mean really. Do you have any idea how much 1% of its mass would be? Even if it was changed by that amount I'd have to seriously doubt its gonna change our tides much, since half the day's tide is caused by the sun. But depite the remote possibility that could even happen due to changing the moon's mass, the changing tides only steals rotational momentom from the earth anyway. Oh no! We'll have day and night a million more years! The titanic size of the planets around us is the very same reason terra-forming could take hundreds of years! No matter what mandkind does, even if on purpose, has little effect on what is already in place. I mean seriously thousands of years of burning stuff in large quantities and only just now does the planet warm up on average a single degree??? Oh yeah lets start worrying were all about to die! lol.
