In a letter from a Purdue professor emeritus to Tom Vilsack:

A team of senior plant and animal scientists have recently brought to my attention the discovery of an electron microscopic pathogen that appears to significantly impact the health of plants, animals, and probably human beings. Based on a review of the data, it is widespread, very serious, and is in much higher concentrations in Roundup Ready (RR) soybeans and corn-suggesting a link with the RR gene or more likely the presence of Roundup. This organism appears NEW to science!

Scary. Read the letter and the related info:

Thank goodness my goats don't get any corn or soy of any type. Whew. This is terrible but not surprising.

Well crap! I haven't switched my flock totally over to whole grains. Shouldn't be a big issue in Summer, but right now I don't have enough alternatives :tongue
