Dear Listers from all over the world!

The issue of genetically engineering  our food supplies is a very
serious one and all conscientious health care professionals ought to at
least look at it and decide where they stand on this issue.  Here is
something we can all do, and URGENTLY:

The BBC in inviting internet users to comment on whether Genetic
Engineering
should be stopped using a special internet page.

Send them your view by visiting the site at:

http://news.bbc.co.uk/hi/english/talking_point/newsid_107000/107322.asp

Please forward this message to as many people as you think will want to
participate and not mind the email.  This is an international poll so
anyone can participate.

At the time of this email 62% are saying "YES", GE should be stopped.

Dear Gardeners:

I haven't had time to check this out yet, but thought gardeners might have
an opinion or two about this... Aren't some of the yummy veggies we grow
genetically engineered?

Cynthia (wondering why this forwarded message has such a 'prophecy-of-doom'
flavor to it)
