    <p>Its the complete misunderstanding of what "Genetically Modified Organism" means that gets me. Its not like some evil scientist in a lab is injecting them with BabyKill(TM) or some other mystically harmful substance.</p>

    <p>These silly fluffybunnies want everyone to have a right to good food and clean water, but don't understand the sheer level of science that will go into it!</p>

    <p>I'm currently using it to see if i can find my fantasy "i really wish i'd pulled you at uni" girl. I have a maybe. And if it is, it's a let down, and a lesson that memories are always 100% better than reality.</p>

    I saw the girl I felt like that about at college at a gas station a couple of years ago. She recognised me first , took me a while to figure out who she was. The years had not been kind, she asked me if I was on Facebook , fortunately I was able to avoid an awkward friend request.<br><br>
    Also she lives in Levin by choice now.

    Cos we're not friends on FB all I can picture of you is a hard drinking thespian who gave two wonderful performances both ended prematurely by a) Sean Connery and b) a big fucken Shark......<br><br>
    Mind you I am friends with Mariner amongst others so perhaps it's best you're not on there after all.

    In FNQ, maybe. And then only because you're not related to anyone there by blood except your kids
