The subdued response by hardcore materialists to the results of the Genome Project has been interesting to observe. As Commoner notes, Nicholas Wade, the public voice of orthodox scientific conventional wisdom, and others, merely asked the public to note how "humbling" the results were, wistfully telling us to note how closely related we are to the banana.

I haven't been following the Human Genome Project very closely. Last time I checked in I remember that we were "getting close" to a complete catalogue of all human genes. And then... silence. The issue had drifted off of my radar screen.

Then I stumbled across this article in Harper's in the (Boris Karloff accent) lavoratory at work. Unfortunately, I didn't have time to finish it. Glad you posted it. I had the same impression as you from what little I read. Something's going on here someone doesn't want us to know about...

I'll tell you what I think it is.(No, hold the tin foil hat!)

I think these guys have sold a lot of altered genes that are going to get(or are already)in the food chain and they're afraid they have unloosed some "destroyer" genes.

Funky soy beans turning up in feedlots, burger filler,medicine binders, etc.

And that genie (no pun intended)can't be put back in the bottle!
