SAO PAULO, Brazil -- In a victory for U.S.-based biotechnology firm Monsanto
Co., Brazil's lower house of Congress overwhelmingly approved a law
Wednesday creating a framework to legalize biotech seed sales in Latin
America's largest country.

CheeseNote:  Chalk up another victory for Monsanto.  Some day food will not
be able to be produced without paying them their royalties, kind of exactly
like Today, but with the word "completely" added to it in the Future.  The
neat thing about their genetically altered seeds they are shooting around
the world, is that it allows you to spray crops with as much pesticides as
you want without harming the crop.  Now there's a really cool neat thought
your stomach can digest for a few millenium.  Don't say you weren't warned,
but when your childrens' children start getting even larger cases of cancer
etc than their ancestors did, don't blame the tooth fairy.  Just remember to
wash all your veggies under American tap water, and that should fix
everything.  Enjoy your meal.  It cost you your life.  The movie is free.
