Thank you, DaVinci, it was very kind of you to say that about me. However, I can get somewhat miffed with some of the stupidity shown by one or two people on this forum including those who want us to return to the dark ages, so if you see me being less than civil on the odd occasion, please forgive me. I am certainly capable of lacking civility, but please do not hesitate to let me know if I have gone over the top, sometimes I get too upset about where I think our community is heading.
Incidentally, I do not agree with your views on GMOs but I find the discussion pointless these days and have given up joining in the debates. I think everyone is so entrenched with their own points of view there is no longer any middle ground, and I do not think labelling is middle ground, it's a slippery slope that will enable those from the genuine anti-science and anti-logic brigade to get their way. I do not include you in that. But this is Puna. So be it.
Edited - minor change, I like the word "entrenched"!
