Howdy, all--
A Donella Meadows piece I thought might interest some of you:
Let's Look Before We Leap in Biotech

"If it strikes you as alarming that private investors can
patent, keep secret, and sell something that sits within
every cell of your body, you ought to pay much closer
attention to the new, jaw-dropping biotech industry. I
have just spent several weeks with my students
listening to biotech enthusiasts, critics, and a lot of folks
in between. There were three particular moments I'd
like to tell you about, all of them moments of stunned
silence."

exploding. --France's ambassador to NZ, Jacques LeBlanc, on
