Winds of Jurassic Park




GM wheat  (genetically modified wheat) was found growing wild in Oregon last month. This is some years after test fields had been removed.

Anybody who had seen Jurassic Park knew that the probability of the same GM wheat popping up somewhere nearby was greater by quite a bit than the probability that the GM wheat was strictly under control, and it would never occur in that area again - unless somebody planted it deliberately.
Nature abhors a vacuum and stretches itself out to fill in all the voids in the genetic landscape.

The wind blows free...
