Rupert, you want to really get mad at Monsanto and the power these schmucks have over our food chain?

Their chemicals have been implicated in bee colony collapse disorder. Of course, if we lose bees, we lose ... everything.

There was an article on Daily Kos this past week: Monsanto bought up the biggest research company investigating bee colony collapse.

I'm lucky I live in an agricultural area: I shop the local farmers markets, I buy what's in-season, even the Kroger has a locally-grown fresh section, and we have a huge choice of local produce co-ops.
