Rene' (prosserfarmgirl) posted about this under Keeping In Touch. If this is something that you feel strongly about, make your voice heard by end-of-business this Friday.

Here's the key line: "USDA's Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) has given preliminary approval to Event 98140 corn, the first of a new generation of pesticide-promoting, genetically engineered (GE) crops designed to survive spraying with multiple herbicides." For more info, here's the link to Rene's post:
