        is it because its taking the p?

        They used to make gunpowder using "p"(Think it was gunpowder)

        They also used to P into the solution they used in making felt hats, but that want as bad as the mercury that was also in it. (I knew watching Mark Williams in "Industrial revelations" would be handy one day)

            Plus leathermaking, plus in use of alum for dyeing.

            P.S. I seemed to have missed the reference to GM crops in the OP/Post Title, and still can't seem to find it, not that I buy/use anything GM or use Glyphosate or any other nasty chemical stuff myself.

              It's about time scientists and others responsible for this stopped messing with the way nature works. It nearly always ends with disaster.

                What about Lister, Pasteur, Fleming, Curie, etc. messing about with the way nature works?

                    The finger of fate is hovering over that "self destruct" button again. I am also concerned as to what mankind is putting in place for the "benefit of fututre generations"

                    This subject is a whole new different thread Scrungee and it's probably best not to steal this thread with it. A good, debateable subject though it is. :)

                      maybe thats why there is a doomsday seedbank that was funded by Bill Gates, Rockerfeller etc and is in Svalbard on the Norwegian island of Spitsbergen

                      perhaps an 'insurance' against GM crops going wrong?

                      Perhaps. I understand its there just because there is a very real risk of us losing all sorts of species. Not just because of GM. And before we start putting all the blame on the big corporations, we should also consider how many ordinary folk have flowerbeds filled with F1 hybrids and sterile cultivars while our native wildflowers are in decline.
