I sense from your comment that Monsanto is your client or employer. Would that be correct?

If that were true, I'd be proud to work there. Food innovation is of critical importance for mankind, in the same realm as space exploration or improved information accessibility.

Certainly a lot more important selling ads, or providing an internet-based service to pick up your laundry.

But it isn't true. Maybe someday.

It sounds like you're unfamiliar with both what Monsanto does, and with what I do.

I know what they do, not what you do.

If you know something I don't, then I have no way of using it to form an opinion until you tell me about it.

I am familiar with what Monsanto does and have pretty much agreed with GP. I am also familiar with the anti-science youtube documentary watching, "do-your-own-research" conspiracy junky crowd accusing strangers of being shills on public forums. Your profile is blank so that is all I have to go on as far as "what you do".
