Re: BBC NEWS | Africa | Famine-hit Zambia rejects GM food aid
1 Samuel.22: (1) "David therefore departed thence, and escaped to the cave
Adullam: and when his brethren and all his father's house heard it, they went
down thither to him. (2) And every one that was in distress, and every one that
was in debt, and every one that was discontented gathered themselves unto
him..."
The opinions expressed are strictly mine.
It's not about dose, it's about trust.
Curies forever.
