Mark Lynas "I was wrong" to oppose GM crops
Takes a big person to admit they're wrong
"Once the crowd's mannered applause had died down, he began. "My lords, ladies and gentlemen. I want to start with some apologies, which I believe are most appropriate to this audience. For the record, here and upfront, I apologise for having spent several years ripping up GM crops. I'm also sorry that I helped to start the anti-GM movement back in the mid-1990s and that I thereby assisted in demonising an important technological option which can be used to benefit the environment. As an environmentalist, and someone who believes that everyone in this world has a right to a healthy and nutritious diet of their choosing, I could not have chosen a more counter-productive path. I now regret it completely."
Amazing the Guardian ran the story.
We've seen some "warmist" change their minds lately on global warming. Maybe there's hope yet.

Haiti's nightmare: Missing billions in aid
This is why I never donate to these causes.
Where's the media and celebrities now? Surely, this is as bad as the earthquake itself. Good on the Mail for this story but it needs a lot more attention.

Protesters burn Christian homes in Pakistan
The religion of peace at work.
This caught my eye:
"Blasphemy is an extremely sensitive issue in Pakistan, where 97 percent of the population are Muslims, and allegations of insulting Islam or the Prophet Mohammed can prompt violent outbursts of public anger, even when unproven."
Any excuse to attack non Muslims.
Britain and America need to cut off aid to Pakistan.

Obama's drones and Bill Ayers
Those on the left supporting Obama's drone policy directed at Americans, would do well to think about Bill Ayers.
