Quote:I would ask 'When are we going to learn?', but I actually know that the answer is "NEVER"! ARGH!Unfortunately, it's going to be worse in the future, when we will be making the same mistakes with genetically 'enhanced' varieties. You know, the kind that looks economically promising, is strong enough to wipe out natural competition under favorable circumstances, and then gets wiped out itself by some innocent virus or a slight change of weather...
Even now, some people think we should introduce 'wonder trees' all over the world, just so we can continue bringing more CO2 into the atmosphere.
