Where did I assert that you could? My statement was that you could improve agricultural yields by improving technology, which I don't think is an extreme point of view, since that's what we've been doing in order for the earth to sustain its current population. BTW, WTH is with all those +Ablahblah-? You cannot simply introduce some random technology into a standardised message exchange service, and expect anythong but technological inefficiencies. :-) ~kzm -- If I haven't seen further, it is by standing in the footprints of giants
