Did you know that the few companies that control sugar beet production (and beet sugar production) in the USA are quietly switching over to ROUNDUP READY sugar beets with MONSANTO technology? Yes, right now as we converse, beet seed growers in Oregon's Willammett Valley are transplanting planting vernalized plugs for the first mass seed crop of GMO seed.
This means:
Beet Sugar and all products that contain this ingredient will most likely be GMO
Pollen from GMO sugar beets will soon be flying all over the sugar beet seed growing regions potentially contaminating table beet seed and swiss chard seed.
Organic seed growers are threatened by GMO contamination!!!!
The Organic Seed Alliance along with High Mowing Seed and the Center for Food Safety and others has filed suit against the USDA APHIS for allowing this without proper environmental impact review but there will be no imediate injunction against the planting out of this GMO material. See www.seedalliance.org for more information.
I wonder if B.T. Cabbage won't be next. And then what? The government continues to approve these monsters without due process and prudent review. The government continues to resist demands to require labeling of GMO products.

What about moving some of the archives?

Why not leave the list,
new members and Home Page say
~"The list is moving... Name change..." etc?

You can even leave the list for OUR use as archives,
and merely remove it from being listed.

Bill:

The whole seedsavers archive (less inappropriate and OT posts) are still available,
right next to the seedkeepers archive in the list homepage:

http://lists.ibiblio.org/mailman/listinfo/seedkeepers

then go to:
