It takes a gene genie to feed a village
by noteworthy at 11:13 pm EDT, Jul 31, 2007

Freeman Dyson is certainly working hard to get his message out ...

We are suspicious of genetic engineering, but bio-sciences are about to become the new industrial revolution. It’s not just about GM crops: soon we’ll be designing our own pets and tackling global poverty

This article covers the same ground as Our Biotech Future -- you know, things like housewives sharing "recipes" for "canine-based" automatic toilet bowl cleaners, and kids arguing over genetic "cheats" in Pokémon Live (think doping, a la Tour de France, or baseball) -- but for the newspaper audience, he leaves out the pointers to Carl Woese.
