Has no one ever told the Schmuck and Schmuckette that ALL the food we eat is GMO.....? Much of it was modified by selective breeding rather than lab work, but it all has been modified to some extent. Most people would not eat the original natural forms of much of our food, but past work in changing said food has made it more palatable, in some cases more nutritious, and more resistant to weather, poor irrigation, insects and pests, weeds, etc. Ah well..... As an aside, early polls indicate that the Baron will pull more votes from the Orange Rind than from Smokin' Joe - pray that it is so.....

Yes. Native Americans "modified" both agriculture and forests.
