"You take the blue pill and the story ends. You wake in your bed and you believe whatever you want to believe."
"You take the red pill and you
stay in Wonderland and I'll show you how deep the rabbit-hole goes."
Gerald B. Guest, FDA official in charge of the Center for Veterinary Medicine, 1992:
"Animal feed derived from genetically modified plants presents unique animal and food safety concerns. These concerns arise partly because one crop - field corn - supplies 50 to 75% of the diet of most domestic animals, so small changes in nutrient levels from genetic engineering can have large effects on animal health. The antibiotic resistance marker genes contained in most crops would likely make animals resistant to some antibiotics, especially neomycin, which is used in animal feed. Furthermore, toxicant residues from transgenic crops could end up in meat and milk products and may pose human food safety problems".

How GM Crop Trials Were Rigged
By Geoffrey Lean - The Independent - UK- 10-11-3
Ministers Knew Of The Environmental Dangers, But The Tests Were Designed Not To Focus On This In truth the GM trials, whose results will be reported on Thursday, were always more political than scientific. And their impact - despite being the biggest experiments of their kind conducted anywhere in the world - will be felt most in Whitehall, Westminster and the often disconcertingly plush offices of the big environmental pressure groups.
