Bayer buys Monsanto

Ever since I've had a conversation with Greenpeace activists in front of our supermarket, I don't trust them any more to know anything. The specimens I've met were as entirely emotionally ideology driven as any religious true believer, babbling on about the "purity" of their food like that crazy general in Dr. Strangelove.

I guess these were the usual students trying to hook you on a lifetime supporter role there for a few dimes. All armed with their handhelds and ready to take your details. We've got our fair share of these. Amnesty, Greenpeace, every organisation you can think of. But they're not representative of their particular organisations. Just a few people pestering anyone for the few dimes they get for their efforts. I don't even stop to talk with them.
