Oh brother.
I don't suppose you approve of serial numbers on condoms either.

I'm not a big fan of whiskey, but if you bring the bong with you, I'm in!

You get my hopes up, and then...................
And you would NOT stay around if you were losing. You'd make some excuse about having to go get more whiskey or something, and run out, way before you'd admit you were wrong. I've met you manager types before. I got your argument skills right here.
You can tell me all day.....but you STILL have to go get that spotted owl ready, cause I know you are full of what he needs to wipe off!@!!!

For the last 30 years, I've been involved in on farm research and new technology. I can't even count the number of projects or the companies that I have worked with over the years. I know a lot of people think Monsanto is satan, but it was probably the same group that hates Walmart too. I have no idea if Monsanto right or wrong, but i can shed some light on why they're so successful. When Monsanto comes to your farm, everything they have and do are perfect. They roll up like the circus, and immediately start unloading and setting up like a well oiled machine . They have the best and the newest equipement and technology, Their plots are immaculate, extremely symmetical and when their seeds emerge, it has the precision of a military cemetery. During the growing season, they have someone monitoring and taking notes weeky. Harvest is every bit as precise as the planting, their equipment is the lastest and greatest. They also have the capability of producing real time harvest data with satelite data transfer . Monsanto also hires the best people, you can't not be a slacker and work there, if you don't do your job, they have a extremely quick hook.
This is just a small insight on what I've seen that make them different that say other companies. Monsanto for now has set the standard for quality, and it's a reflection on how they operate .
NTB, thanks for the firsthand knowledge and insight, it is appreciated and interesting. The Walmart analogy is interesting ... everyone bitches about them, yet everybody shops there. I've seen many other examples through the years where the most successful are the ones who catch the most heat from consumers or observers. It's like the drug companies, they spend millions for research and pay top tier researchers to develop a product. They incur all sorts of expenses with products that fail and are scrapped, yet when they hit on a successful product, they are the Devil because they try to recoup their expenses which have accrued for years before they managed to introduce a viable product.
I don't really have a dog in this fight because I know squat about farming ... I thought all that stuff was grown in the back storage area of the grocery store!
Anyway, thanks for that info. As far as the food I eat, I'd put more trust in the Monsantos of the world than some unregulated dirt farmer in Central Mexico.

I have no issues or even knowledge of what they do tactically. Its what they are doing strategically that I take issue with. That and their company history. They are developers and producers of products like polystyrene, DDT, Agent Orange, and saccharin. Not exactly a track record for dealing in products that are harmless to humans and to the environment. That's the roots of the company and what springboarded them to where they are today. Stewards of product safety and the environment? Here's a tip. Past behavior predicts future behavior.
I'm sure they are good at what they do though.

I think you're correct Thump, when you're talking food safety, I lean to the things that are already scrutinzed verses the organic and produce markets that get around the system and the buy local mentality.
Paranoia and the sky is falling could be contribute to other things too........ just saying
I am neither paranoid nor do I think the sky is falling. Even though I have tried to be as explicit as I could about what I think needs to be done and what is wrong with what we're doing today, you write it all off as this?
give me a large fucking break, NoTill.

Curmudgeon.

A break ? Fuck you haven't been explicit, you haven't done anything but throw conspiracy theories out there . Hahahahaha Bullshit........
I'm not sure why I let you suck me back down this friggin rabbit hole, but I'm done.

Ha ha ha ha! You're not done ... I see your time stamp ... the NASCAR race starts in 4 minutes!
