Re: New Magazine: Let the games begin.

How about this one for bizarre:

A FOOD CHAIN RELEASE FROM METROFARM.COM <http://metrofarm.com/> The
Department of Agriculture has approved the large-scale planting of rice
containing human genes. This leads one to ask:  "Can those human genes be
kept down on the farm?"
 This Saturday at 9AM Pacific, the Food Chain with Michael Olson hosts the
Union of Concerned Scientists and Ventria Bioscience (tent.) for a
conversation about "human" rice.

Log on www.metrofarm.com to listen on your radio, computer or IPOD.
Topics include why some infuse rice with human genes; why some oppose the
planting of this rice; and whether the potential benefits of this rice
outweigh its potential risks.
 *Question of the Week: **Can human rice be contained, or will it
escape?*<http://www.metrofarm.com/forums/viewforum.php?f=2>
