But you've got it backwards. The question asked was this:
"If a person asks if the food from
non organic seed produces safer food, what is the response?"
(This is a direct cut-and-paste from Marty's message - you
can read it for yourself, if you wish).
Note: he asked if *NON*-organic seed is safer.
I said "Why would it be?"
