I am not exactly going against GMOs because for one the course that I am currently taking up is highly involved with genetic modification (and such) but it would be nice if we could attend such a forum to learn more about the rice crisis and GMOs and to be open to varied ideas=D

If you guys are free on the said date and time and are interested, please come=D
