Re: Unidentified subject!


I would like to take up an intelligent and educated discussion on this
topic.   I don't want to start a bitter or irrational arguement about this
issue, but I would like to hear your opinion on why you feel anything
"genetically altered"  or treated with radiation cannot be organic.    

On the surface it may be an easy  conclusion to draw, but why do you really
feel this way?   And precisely what do you consider "genetically altered"? 
 I think there could be many determinations of the exact boundaries of this
classification.   

Please let me emphasize again that I would like to keep this discussion on
a friendly level from one grower to another.   I'm not interested in, nor
very persauded by vague or negative allegations that are unfounded.    Lets
talk about this one and try not to get each other mad.   

Rick
