Hi Leigh. Did these groups do anything to get the word out about the
USDA scheme or the CODEX anti-alternative health care garbage? If they
actually help prevent such schemes, I can believe that they may be free
from influence, but if they do not, then I tend to think they are
influenced. Where do they get grants from? Aloha. Lloyd
