I'm finishing reading Botany of Desire by Michael Pollan and went to page 211 forgot where I left off.....but it was something back 10 years ago or so with GE corn pollen and what was happening to monarch butterflies. They feed on closely grown milkweed next to wind blown pollen corn fields..they were dying from the pollen I guess on the milkweed leaves and people on the web were really angry about it. I chimed in some then...Oh my gosh....is BT save. I think he wrote the book for just this point for me at least to gather more imformation....Have you heard of this...I have to bring this topic up at my smarter than a 5 grader enrichment program..just in case there's a real mad scietist to be in the classroom. GE pollen...sneeze. Kids love butterflies and we got to eat but this is scary. I'll say a prayer to help me manage....this world has gone crazy quickly ever since...maybe steam was invented! Is any one ever just gone to be able to say stop.....
