People have explained to the authorities for YEARS that they have not wanted the research to be done on the GM crap that the Big Ag interests are determined to ram down our throats.

When parents find out that it is RoundUp being sprayed again and again on these plots of land, and then they find out that RoundUp is a poison, they try and stop it from happening. So that their children will not be impacted by RoundUp.

If Univ. Of California Berkeley must do this research, in order to continue to attract the Big Money from the Big Ag interests, maybe they could take the research elsewhere - to areas which are not as populated as the East Bay.

It is bad enough that people in The East Bay have to deal with the noxious crap the refineries spew out 24/7.
